    From memory the S ver on the VN was all one colour with minor trim changes - same spec in the mecanical department. So it was just cosmetics and may be electric mirrors and windows - maybe FE2.

    My S pack has SS interior, SS body kit (minus the rear wing), metallic paint, some berlina options. Has FE2, colour coded 15's (Aero wannabes), V8 brakes, level 2 dash

    Basically its a mix of exec, ss & berlina.

    So it's essentially an authentic s pack, right?

    I assume so, but seeing as I didnt own it from factory & didnt want to come out & say THEY HAD XXXXX when I know there were variencies with in the S pack editions.

    Id rather listed what I have as a guide rather than a hard & fast rules, I have been told before that not all S packs got SS interior for starters.

    Im only 17 and I've only had 2 cars so far and both of them were vn s's. 1 was a auto wagon that had the fe2 suspension, 15" rims, the bigger rotors and a 2 1/2 inch exhaust, and the other was the same but it was a sedan 5 speed manual and electric aerial. Both were completely stock.
