HI Iam just wondering how much I should be paying for a vp calais ,the prices seem so different evrywhere.Used to have one got stolen and burnt now just have my vito van and the missus has a vz but am looking at getting a cool cruiser for my self.

5 litre or V6?, The prices will vary either way but you should find a nice 5 litre for under 5 grand pretty easy at the moment

**V85000i** · 23-09-2007, 02:03 PM

depends if your looking at a V6 or V8 all up mine was 6500 + a trade in eb falcon, it had 155,000km on it, that was almost 1 1/2 years ago. and it's a V8.

**V85000i** · 23-09-2007, 02:05 PM

and it also depends which state your in, i've noticed prices vary alot from state to state for the same car, S.A seems to be average in the middle price

**Joey_21** · 23-09-2007, 02:05 PM

You'll have to pay more than 5 for something mint like that I think

depends though some people just don't care if they allready bought a new car or something like that then you can get a bargin

I just recently got offered 4.5k for mine as a trade in.

V8, 137 000km, dead straight, no dings, full service history and paperwork from HSV.

I said 'I suppose you give me 4.5k today, but tomorrow it will be in your used car lot for 10k' and the salesman replied 'Yep, thats spot on'.

So I would be banking on around 6k for a reasonable condition V8.

Here is a pic.
