    yo as many of you know my car was mashed up bad after it came off a trailer!


    anyway a week ago i inspected this car and put a deposit on it,

    since then checked the VIN number with HSV and its genuine, checked it with vic roads aswell, no finance owed on it, not stollen and never been written off..

    Model: XX1-ENG-SS-V8
    Colour: ALASKAN [J064 ]
    Trim Colour: BLUE INTERIOR TRIM [23I ]
    Options: 185 KW ENGINE [XX1 ]
