    I believe he means that it is the same model engine as what is in the VPs rather than the different engines used in the early VNs.

    Nice looking car though mate, hope you have a lot of fun with it

    The vp motor is whats in the series two vn, Its an update they did that made some things more practical, Like your radiator has a cap, unlike series one it didn't only the overflow bottle, you have a bit of plastic by the throttle body thing on a series two If i remember correctly and it has another 2kw from factory over the series one, If its an ""S"" you have a larger front brake on it bigger diameter. If the dash says Commodore or S its an S or if it says exec it specs for itself, Plus its got No tacho so id say its not an ""S"" looks nice and tidy spoiler would look awesome not on the car lol, only thing that seems to let it down good car to start with though
    Speed never killed anyone. Suddenly becoming stationary, now that's what gets you...

    *IF* this engine does play up, it's not hard to find another one

    The only thing Im thinking about would be the Gearbox if it hasnt been rebuilt.. But, im sure shane-o will look after his VN

    Most vn-p's in this town dont get looked after to well
