Ta ive looked at the site but it doesnt give me what i want.I think i might ring them with the build number etc and sus out this car some more.There were 3 engine options and would like to know what one it has and what other options it has fitted.

I know the Stato your looking at.
cant say i know what extras it has (apart from the tacky kit), but it does have a few Kms on it.
Id do your homework on this one.

Most CSVs involved engine work aswell!

Fastest production car back in the day!

Ive looked at the car,outside is nice(sunroof too),leather is tired looking.Has Lenso wheels rear tyres are low,needs a screen too.Has HSV brakes with slotted rotors.Rang CSV and they tell me 275kw but i think they were 265kw,this consisted of different air intake,headers and exhaust as well as computer mod.
I know the reserve and its in my budget(that i will have shortly) including replacing the seats either from another statesman or a retrim.
Its been up 3 weeks now with no one meeting the reserve.I have some connections in the auction group where it is so if i bite the bullet i should be right.

Here is a pic

**Ado** · 22-02-2009, 08:35 PM

Has the dual sided exhaust which i like the look of.They just run a pipe from the left side bit it looks good.

**eurekamad94** · 22-02-2009, 08:37 PM

ive auctully never heard of csv tbh

**Ado** · 22-02-2009, 08:37 PM

Rear shot too.If i dont get thats OK,plenty cars for sale at the mo.

**eurekamad94** · 22-02-2009, 08:39 PM

has this been modified ? it's unusual for a tuning division not to have there badge/name on the back of their car's

Rear badge is missing but has them on the front guards,bonnet,engine cover and had a build number in the dash.CSV wheel caps too.

Dang...seriously, that is one ugly mofo.

The saying "that one escaped the abortion bin" rings true.

As for CSV, heard mixed reports, personally, Id rather stick with HSV.

**CANYONERO** · 22-02-2009, 09:30 PM

ive heard good things about CSV. but there styling department needs scrapping and starting again. i dont think theve made a nice lookin kit yet.

**walesy** · 22-02-2009, 09:30 PM

yeh i hate that grille! U.G.L.Y!!! ill stick with my caprice one thanks... the rest of the kit looks ok though, not too different from a grange kit
