Default Now ive got a car fo sure!! 1992 VP Manual!

Yes its for real this time!

It's a 1992 VP Executive 5 Speed V6

It's got new: Clutch, Fuel Pump, Rear swaybar, All the front end bushes have been replaced, The cooling system has been flushed and its had a service.

It does need a couple of small things: Rear brake globe and indicator globe, new LR tyre and a wheel alignment ( good thing i work for Bridgestone! )

I paid $2500 for it and its got 3 months rego on it.

Pics coming tomorrow.

Looks good the stocks are shocking and the steering wheel must be like driving a bus. Seems in good nick, good luck with the vp - the $2500 seems good deal for a manual.How many km on her? The X plates look bit sad tho.

its got tint ( maybe 75%, not dark at all ) but its blury as at night ( gives me the shiz as you cant see much ) might be getting a new RH tail from Flyen also getting some cop rims in the future also am looking at getting a level 2 dash so i have a tacho.

Its done around 230-240k according to the last owner, odo is stopped at 206.

Loving the interior, its seriously like new, dont think i'd change it as its heaps comfy.

Got a tyre from work today for $20, so its all legal now!

and peanuts, whats your last name? my mate Ben Hopkins granpa or something built the house.
