Hi Guys
Just putting up some info and pics of my VS ute.
I bought it about 6 months ago and it was pretty stock. Took me a while to find a good clean one with low kilometers on it. Paid $6250 for it and purchased it of a 50 year old librarian.
It was not at all quick when i bought it but it was in immaculate condition.
After a bit of time and money I am now happy with its peformance.
My wife posed for a few of the pictures so nice comments only please.

Looks good condition mate, and future mods planned?
Edit:wrong section, should be in the my ride section as this one is for asking questions![]()
Also i am fairly sure that the Series 1 VS Ute was the T5 Gearbox and the Series II/III were the Getrags.
Very tidy. I have noticed there are not as many factoy manual utes around anymore.
