Did you look for and buy a vl turbo or non turbo? as for me i had just bought a vk to do injected v8 new paint and this guy over herd me talking about my vl (na) then he said do you want to buy one no i said but whats it like. body kit wheels and a custom paint. what motor i ask. he said a 6. no not interested, then he said its a calais turbo i went and looked at it on a friday and picked it up on the tuesday so whats your story. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

My uncle had a Brocky equipped VL Calais V8 back in 88. But I really think it was Summernats 2002. I really just bought one purely on looks. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

got a ride in pannic. end of story.

There used to be a black vl with aero kit i think with the plates SHWTME or something around my area and i wanted 1 after seeing that.

The driveline They look alright, but it's essentially a good driveline in a shoddy car. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

around 2000 - 2001 i first laid eyes on the original rajab car. after that, it was VL's all the way

i needed a car for a school project back in high school year 10/11 for Automotive class and my teacher suggested the vl commodore was easy to work on and would make a great first car so i grabbed the old n/a bt1... through working on that car (whilst geting my l plates, and later p plates) i discovered this site and read for a bit then signed up... then this site convinced me i needed to buy a vl turbo haha, and as soon as i could afford it... i did, haven't regretted it since Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

the whole way through high school i was promised a VK V8 with gold simmons and on my 17TH i got it! but after a year went by the old girl needed a face lift and i wanted an injected SC combo but my budget wouldnt allow for it so i thought best bang for buck... hello my white BT1 have spent ten G on her including purchase and 3.5 grand on the VK i still have both but the VL is by far quicker car tho i dont belive it looks as good as the VK (sorry guys dont ban me!)

my m8 took me for a ride in his skyline then another m8 had a TT soarer took me for a spin in that then i fell in love with turbo's then my m8 with the soarer had a VLT took me for a spin. later on i fronted the $$ then we parted ways me with a VLT him with my $$

i liked the look of em, i thought initialy they had the old 202 3.3litre motors in them, when i found out they only had a 3litre in them i was shattered, but i got over that very quickly, and now im driving my 3rd vl and have never looked back since

As Jordy said, driveline without a doubt. Without the RB motors, i wouldn't have even considered, VL's were my step up from the Datto 1600's. The VL is relatively easy to work on, can produce good bang for buck, and the VL shape doesn't look to shabby.

its all i could afford when i was 16. a vl na

i just bought mine as a to get to school type thing, than a mate of mine bought some stuff off a guy in shepp and fell in love (tt jet) don't know where that car is now tho....got me very interested in rb25's in vls and now i have a 2.5 (na but ahh) in mine so all is good

my 1st vl got given to me now i am on my 3rd one in a matter of 14 months

For me the VL was a step up from the VH Royale. Much better looking way faster and it revved like hell. On to my third now and my new White VL Royale is pure heaven as far as I'm concerned. Will be even better when I get a RB30et into it. Have to say though main reason for the VL's is that VN's look like **** are to big and sluggish and dont ride as nice!!!
