Differences in VZ SS features

[Fu Manchu]

I'm currently looking for an SS Crewman or Cross8.

I've found that VYII Cross8's are plated as VZ.

Also I have noticed not all SS come with Climate control or leather seats. I never knew there where low spec SS.

Does anyone know what defines the trim differences?
At what point did all SS get Climate and leather seats.

Also finding a Cross8 is hard. A few over east. Can't get there

Fu, if you bought an SS you had to option leather. The climate was part of the leather option. Although climate was only part of the package from VYII to VZ though. Climate was not available on VYI.

What’s the difference between models with a turtle shell cover on the motor and the twin covers seen on others?

I’ve seen both on 04 VZ plated (VYII) Cross 8’s.

nothing in the memory bank about that, sorry

Can the turtle shell covers be swapped with the dual covers?

Here's a deal for you, send me the cash for the car, petrol and an airfare home, and I'll deliver it to you.
Been a long time since I have driven to WA. Trust me, I'm a good bloke.

I’ve seen this one. I’d have to meet you at the border.

If this pandemic wasn’t a thing, I’d be flying over to buy one and driving it back.
