Does anyone know anything about the 200 series vl?

[Boonz]

[Crosso]

Someone smashed into the front of it and I can't find parts anywhere?

[Boonz]

got pics of the car tho??? helps if we could see what it looks like....

[VL Berlina 5speed]

if im correct by guess it is a specail edition executive, so the panels need are the same as normal vls, one sec ill check for a pic so i can tell yah

[Crosso]

I'll try and find one, cheers

[VL Berlina 5speed]

the series 200 has normal SL front, just has calais filled headrests in front, calais style interior crossed with berlina.
other features were 15" wheels with turbo type hubcaps, colour coded bars, and possibly a calais steering wheel..
not many of them around thats i've seen.

there didn;t come out in turbo either.

so the panels u need will be the same as a vl executive/berlina

[Crosso]

That's awesome thanks, It's the one with the gold and cream colour scheme. There isn't many around. . . I had no idea they existed till I picked this one up. Totally pissed me off that this woman smashed it.... It was emaculate before her...

[VL Berlina 5speed]

heres a pic of one that i found, note it has the calais front on it (pop up head lights)

and for the lower skirt on the bar i think that is a LE skirt, not sure if thats factory on the 200 series vl

edit: pics not uploading comps running slow ill get it up soon

[Crosso]

This is side photo... The front left light will have to be replaced and front grill etc

[VL Berlina 5speed]

pics up now.....

[SL/ENUT]

That pic /\/\ is here in tassie, seen it drive about around my city too.

[VL Berlina 5speed]

yah from the looks there you need stuff listd below, and if they ask what model its for just say berlina as tahts basiclly what u got

new head light (best get a 2 new 1s as vls a renownd for poor brightness)
new front bar centre (s/hand 1s are rare, soo best get new centre 70 bux or soo)
second hand grill or new up 2 u
nose cone if damaged, get s/hand 1 or just repair
renforcment get s/hand if damaged as it is illegal to repair renforment bars as they are high strength steel and repairing them weakens them and the cars genral safety

[Crosso]

[Crosso]

What do you think I should sell it for

[VL Berlina 5speed]

not sure need details on it, like ks conditon auto manual rust under windows etc the we can get a ruff idea

[Crosso]

230, 000. No rust, one owner before me, auto, very tidy interior,

[VL Berlina 5speed]

i recon 2500 to 4000max not sure as ive neva seen one for sale
depedends on the state to and the want for them,
just wait till tommorow and many other fellow jc ppl will post waht the idea on teh price is,

red book the guide for car sale price says 1300 to 3000 but we all know that is a guide for car yards, so its vauled diffrant

[Crosso]

Yeah I had a look at red book, got same prices. If anyone has seen prices for one please let me know. I'm thinking about prob 4000.....
Cheers for all your help, came in handy

[NORTI]

honestly, its only a 'Berlina' I know that sounds harsh... but unless your selling it to a diehard VL fan & you can get them hooked on the 'Series 200' part.... then it isint worth anything extra to a 'normal' person.
