Hey guys last week i bought a 2003 vy sv8, 134,000km on it, paid $10,500. my questions really related to fuel economy, tank size etc. In my manual in the glovebox, it indeed reads 75ltr tank, whenever i fill up, i can only ever get 50-52ltrs into it? :hmmm: Fuel economy, today i...

so saying that, everything else seems mechanically good, would a slight oil leak turn you off the purchase? as you said, they can be topped up every so often until the source is fixed.

Hey guys my import was stolen a couple weeks ago, so i've decided to buy a real car. i've been looking at the vy range, vy sv8s, ss's and so on. Today i went and looked at a vy sv8, interior was mint, 170,000km, exterior had a crease line on the rear left 1/4 from a trolley, and the rear...
