    Arrow <--- My Daily: 1997 Series 2 VS Executive --->

    Thought it was time I posted my daily up... I bought her with just under 170,000 on the clock and she's just ticked over 200,000 now.

    Car: 1997 VS Series 2 Executive
    Engine: 3.8L Ecotec V6

    Modifications:
    Some crappy 15" mags
    Pedders springs (either standard height or slightly raised?)
    Top Gun Leads

    Interior/Options:
    Cruise Control and Speed Alert from Factory
    Pioneer Headunit (old)
    6 CD Stacker

    Future Modifications:
    Put my old 16's on it as soon as I next need tyres
    Debadge it
    Lower it (probably just King Spring superlows)
    2.5" Sports Exhaust and Chrome Tip


    I've replaced spark plugs, leads, fuel filter and the radiator. I also had to replace one of the mufflers as it had a rather large hole in it. Also, I have 2 keys both of which are stuffed. On one, the buttons work but it wont start the car, on the other it starts the car but the buttons wont work lol. It also uses alot of oil?

    The paint on it is extremely good, as is the interior. Its quite immaculate inside and out except for the hazard light switch which I managed to push through the dash...

    I'll be selling it in about a year and half for my 21st birthday and upgrading to a black V8 Calais... Which model will depend on my finances at the time but im hoping VZ.

    The picture isnt that clear because I took it with my mobile phone this morning at ttp and it was too big so I had to crop it and resize it heaps:

    Well I pulled over to talk to some one and pushed the hazard switch and it flung out (springs came loose I guess and it shot it)... So the hazards were stuck on.

    I tried to put the button back in to get the hazards off and it just poked through through the dash... So I had to pull the fuse out for the hazards so i could drive home without hazards on 24/7
