    Default Upgrading from my VP questions

    Hi All,

    I'm looking at some stage soon to upgrade from my VP to something slightly newer. I'm not talking brand new but possibly somewhere between $6000-8000. Can anyone give me suggestions as to what model(s) of commodore I should be looking at in this price range and anything I should be wary of or look out for in the particular model when having a test drive etc.

    Cheers
    Nacks

    you could probably pick up a vz berlina for about $8000 if your lucky.
    how about we make the pedals out of sticky rubber and the shoes with steel spikes. at least my shins would like that

    It would probably be a pretty rough/high mileage VZ at that price.. maybe a VX? They seemed to iron out the VT's numerous design flaws by then and you get a slightly more powerful V6. There are heaps of low mileage VX's up on carsales for under 8K. Definitely a huge leap ahead from a VP.
