My VN Commy

[Anthraxnz]

Updated: 20/11/07
since everyone else has their own thread i though i was as well have one too

recently bought this for $1400, its done quite alot of k's (283000).
the only mods I've done to it is the stereo and I've got a growing list of things to do to it.

this is my first car that i actually own, previously drove my parents 87 corolla all the time, so this is basically my second car.

currently immobile and stuck on my driveway due to a seize fuel pump which left me stranded in a Mc Donald's carpark, when i got home i realise i could have kicked the fuel tank and driven it home.

nice ride, those are clubsport rims that have been polished. not replicas by the looks of them either. looks like you still got the original ignition leads on there. give her a full service, you'll be amazed how much better they run.

[Anthraxnz]

shes had the coil/leads/ignitor replaced before i bought it.

the guy said he got the holden sticker on the window for like $15NZD, its like an etched sticker.

[immortality]

she looks tidy under the bonnet, shame about the relay/fuse panel lid, time to go to the wreckers to get another one. i had considered getting a holden sticker accross the windsreen but i thing it would be a bit much on a white car

You should have got a v8, those wheels could also be PCW 16's as they are Similar to the clubie's. nice car by the way.

everyone has a bloody lvl 2 cluster but me!!! :P. Nice first car!

[stocky]

apart from the badging, that looks exactly like a berlina. same interior, same exterior door trims, electric antenna. weird

[Anthraxnz]

the NZ executive is the equivalent of a AUS berlena.
they got mixed up somewhere.

whats a level 2 cluster?

[Pezza's_VP]

[Anthraxnz]

i want to put a digital dash in now after seeing other VNs with them, they look so much better

[1vngal]
