well its my 18th next week and im getting a 1000 dolars from my grandparents and some money form my parents
the problem i got is i dont know wether to spend that on my vs wagon and put that on the road or to buy the vn speed that i have found and sell my wagon

[traumatic]

depends, is there much wrong with your vs?

in my car owning experience, it's often better to go with the devil you know.

e.g. maybe the vs has a few things wrong with it, but you know exactly what they are. if you buy something else ( something older in your case ), you never know what bits of it might be right on the verge of giving up.

[Morton]

if I were you I'd keep the VS wagon. Wagons come in very handy if you like that sort of thing

The ecotec motor isn't a bad one to work with either. VNs tend to be a little more of a struggle to communicate with if it's series 1...

spend the cash on getn ya wagon on the road... no point spending it on a vn... they are getn way to old... as morton said, wagon will come in handy, if camping or surfn etc..

[anothervn]

i love vn sedans but if a good cheap wagon come my way id snap it, wagons are cool because there different i have a vn 5speed wagon that needed alil bit more tlc than i was willing to give it to put on the road or else i would be driving it when i get my p's
but now im stuck with a calais look alike vn sedan

I dont like wagons, they tend to need to be owned by people with a certain lifestyle. If your into surfing and camping, keep the wagon. Or if you need to transport loads of stuff around thats good too.

nah their isnt much wrong iv put a new moter in and spent ages getting it runni rite so thats why it would be hard getting rid of it, the vn iv found is speed manual with a group A body kit and is way cleaner then my car but i dont think il be getting it now cos the price has gone up and it still has six days left

[Morton]

You'll probably find yourself getting over the GrpA kit one day anyhow. I'm not a huge fan of them. The only thing really 'special' about the Group A VNs was the engine

Wise choice to keep the wagon

See i dont mind the Group A kit... on an authentic Group A.

HOLDEN VN COMMODORE HSV GROUP `A` BODY KIT,BARGAIN!!!!! - eBay, Other Car Parts, Accessories, Car Parts, Accessories, Cars, Bikes, Boats. (end time 22-Mar-08 12:26:55 AEDST)

[Morton]

To be completely honest, I think that looks horrendous >.< But that's just my opinions.

You're right Roos, they look alright on a genuine GroupA... but if your car doesn't have twin throttles and doesn't NEED a bonnet bulge, why on earth would you want one O_o

[hsvpunk]

after clicking the link. all i gota say is keep the VS wagon.

even if you had twin throttles, why would you want to cover it up with a bulge?

i guess you havent seen cobez car since you left? haha


and the body kit in that link is not a group a kit.

[Grennan]

It was said up a bit, and ill say it again, Stay with the devil you know...

You dont want to sell the VS which you personally know is working pretty well, has a few minor problems here and there but its generally pretty sound.

Espically to downgrade as well...going from a VS to a VN...Youll buy it and just regret it. Youll also find a lot more problems popping up with the VN because of age. Id be sticking with your VS wagon.

[azkwazere]

Its up to you... id say get a VP haha

I dont like wagons at all and i love manuals... + i love group A body kits

(stocky is right, that aint no complete grpA kit)

meh, what do peoples opinions youve never met mean anyway?

aZk.

[VRSS]

keep the vs like everyones said stick with what you know. why not spend the cash getting your wagon converted to manual or buy some nice rims and lower it. that vn doesnt look the best and also would have to have a massive hole cut into the parcel shelf for that sub which is a structural defect technically making the car a write off pretty much. oh and brown interior - throw up.. haha keep your VS youll regret it otherwise

[scrabet]

well im keeping the vs now gunna get that on the road by the end of the holidays just got some pads for it today then it started raining so il see how i feel tomorow after work and chuck em in thanks for all your oppinions
