    Hey guys brought a new ute the other day , as I was needing a ute for work , and since im in love with the Vs shape I'd thought Id go and get one
    Runs like a dream , the owner serviced her every 5,000-10,000k's so shes in mint condition and doesn't run ruff or vibrations or anything .
    So picked this up for pretty cheap ($6k)

    Its got colour change paint on it in mint condition
    Its Manual so im stoked about that soooo much :P waaaay more funnier then an auto

    Soon ill be taking most of the shit off the white vs and putting it into this one such as the
    vt seats
    stereo
    Mace spacers
    roller rockers
    and
    just the little other random crap I can't think of at the moment


    Once all this stuff gets put over onto this on and is Roadworthy and rego'd then the white vs will go and she will get some little more treats added to her

    and heres a few pics of her
    will get better one when I have better lighting and that to show off the paint job
    Let us know what you think





    Looks sorta of blue





    greeen :P







    Looks black here :P :P

    Hanging out with the white vs lol

    looks very nice. and very tiny, no scratches or anything
    so tell us, what colour is it?

    does it have a tub liner, or some protection in the back. if your going to use it for work it is definately going to absolutely trashed with scratches and dents =P
    youll definately want some protection in the back.
    how about we make the pedals out of sticky rubber and the shoes with steel spikes. at least my shins would like that

    LMFAO Choco at your sig quote hahahahaha!

    Yaeh Trent, SSV's would look ok, I'm biased on the Supersports as they and VZ R8's are my favorite rims, love thin spoke wheels...but your car, SSV's will look tough.

    Yeah grouse, well either way, bring one of t3h VS's eh...!! can't wait for the meet, hopefully will have my L3 in by then and have fixed my headlining
