Finally, My First HSV :-)

**GOTMYN** · 31-07-2009, 11:18 PM

Hi Guys, Gals,

Tonight I picked up my first HSV....

A 1998 VT Senator Signature 220i Auto,

All I can say is what a car, 5.7 litre Holden Engine, leather everywhere, all the bells and whistles.....Very nice :-)

160k with full service history since new, the only Mod is an aftermarket Alarm...other than that, car is as original as the day it rolled off the showroom floor.....
Still has the extinguisher mounted in the boot above the factory cd stacker....

EDIT: You said 5.7 in your post but that pic is of a 5l? whats the go there :P

220i on the engine covers means its a 5.7 litre holden stroker motor

**DanVN** · 01-08-2009, 03:42 AM

Yep im an idiot my mate came over just after i posted and told me

**And_ROOS** · 01-08-2009, 03:50 AM

Waste of money, it doesn't even come with clear indicators...

Just kidding, lovely car and had the pleasure of driving one last year. Would love one myself, how much did it set you back?

**stocky** · 01-08-2009, 04:00 AM

ah yeah definately needs some clear indicators on the side. those things stand out like dogs balls

**Jesterarts** · 01-08-2009, 10:51 AM

Hey Chris, did you rob a bank or something recently?

Looks good mate. What are the plans for it? Or are you going to try and keep the mod bug at bay for as long as possible?

Yeh, I was thinking the same thing, it does sit fairly close to the hard stuff!!
The auto is nice and crisp, but yeh still not a 6spd......:-)

I'm thinking a Cat Back system to give it some sound, coz the Stainless HSV system just doesn't do the stroker any justice!! other than that, Fluid changes every 5000k's, maybe a K&N filter....That's about it, It's just too nice to be drillin holes into :-)

**GOTMYN** · 02-08-2009, 12:18 PM

Some Pix from this morn....

**GOTMYN** · 11-08-2009, 07:43 PM

Well, I knew it was going to happen.....but can't believe this soon!!

Some D1ck has scratched it already!!
Noticed it tonight on the rear drivers door....
Not impressed!! Been watching where I park it and everything!!

Some people...

Nah the VT Senators for some reason always have that insanely low mean stance to them.

They look good, I love the VT Senators, they all have a really nice look to them.

..and yeah cant help the auto

Senators are usually all autos.
