    Is it a series 3 VS ute. If it is i would say get a VT ute atleast with the Gen 3 5.7ltr engine. With some minor work (small cam, exhaust) you can get em going fairly quick. Thats just my opinon as they are a better ride and inside the cab they are nicer and more sound proof. But really its up to you what you like and if you wanted to do that you would probably find you would have to throw the swapee some cash his way too, but may be worth it i think

    You mean VU, they didn't make a VT ute which is just as well because it would look terrible lol.
