Not bad,,,


for a lexcen lol

[TVR-190]

It is a well known fact that lexcens are far superior to commodores.

They have a faster tune.
look better.
cheaper rego and insurance.
better built (toyotas always are).

[Dum*P*ster]

lmao.. ;p

It all looks good, other then the damn wheels LOL

[db_notso]

looks clean if it drives good then is good buy for 4k WITH RWC

[Dum*P*ster]

Yeap .. Comes with RWC + 6months reg

[db_notso]

like i said drive it and se if any other faults anything you piclk up on COULD get price down a few hundred more bucks

[LS1FUN]

Not a bad price if everything is as it seems.

[Shortstuff]

Yeah doesn't look bad. You can always swap the front end for a Commodore one if you don't like it - just guards, bar and a bit of moving wiring. Possibly a Lexcen might be less likely to have been thrashed than a Commodore too!

TVr how is bein a lexcen any cheaper on rego? And there computer are exactually the same other then that looks alright,

I'm not going to go into all the technical crap of insurance because i'll probably throw up but simply put...

There are a crapload of Holdens on the road, and crap all Lexcens. This means that it costs more to insure a Holden than a lexcen as more insurance claims are made from Holden drivers. I think this is how it works but i'm not 100% sure and happy to be corrected.

Considering they're exactly the same car I find that hard to beleive.

Why is the build quality any different. They were built in exactly the same factory by exactly the same people. They just put two different badges on them...

[tim005]

I can't stand lexcens, even if it is a vs commodore with a toyota badge.
just the small grill change and those front indicators make me shudder.
go find a vs.....

[VR_Acclaim]

Insurance yes because it doesn't where a commodore badge but unsaid rego to, i can get man vr off gumtree for 3500 thatd be the go for ya

[soop]

Its the same fugging car!? wtf

[LS1FUN]

More insurance claims are made with Commodores than Lexcens, therefore it's a more dangerous car to be in hence the higher cost to insure.

That's what insurance companies think anyway...

[Shortstuff]

Insurance wise my Lexcen cost me about two thirds of what it would cost me to insure the equivalent VR Commodore. No difference in build quality though IMO - they all use prety much identical parts (except for the obvious exterior styling bits).

[soop]

That's probably just because statisticly there are less lexans involved in accidents. Massive Herpa derp on behalf of the insurance companies.

[VR_Acclaim]

Yeah only because only old pol want them I don't like thy look at all

[LS1FUN]

That's probably just because statisticly there are less lexans involved in accidents. Massive Herpa derp on behalf of the insurance companies.

Bingo! (Need 10 characters)

go find a vs.....

and thank the lord thay didnt make lexen utes

[GTP 85]

They are the same as a commodore mate. If it runs good and you really like it, then go for it.... Re badge it with holden stuff and you're good to go haha

More Commodores on the road compared to the lexan

[soop]

Its the same fuggin car!!!
