They've got the same engines, they're pretty much the same car. It all depends...which do you prefer the look of? And which can you find in better condition? One thing to think about is that the VY is newer, and will be easier to find in better condition, despite the fact that I personally prefer the look of the VU, black VU SS = teh sex.

What apprentice ship are you starting? If your gonna be doing something that requires you to carry anything don't get a styleside. I'm a plasterer and i have a vz styleside and i regret not getting a tonner.

i scored my vy s2 s pack ute for 20k -50,000km's, leather bits everywhere, hardcover, and not a scratch on it! Save the monies and get a vy for sure. I'd want a seriously modded vy for 25k!
