ZaRnOws Phantom Black VT Exec

The VT Was a bit pricey but however the paint, plus it is in great condition, haven't had to repair any major problems after buying it, body is in great nick to, has got some tiny scratches from driving it through the hills. It was purchased stock as a rock, besides the lowered suspension and lil 15" Alloys.

However there is so much I would love to do with this car but I am not going to do any particular modifications under the hood, because in the future I plan to get a good old nice V8. Most likely will not bother with the sound system either. Exhaust sounds great, wish start up was louder.
Also need to replace my belt, got coolent on it when I last serviced it, makes a hell bad noise now haha. Will chuck a picture up of the engine bay later on.

nice car man, but yeah those rims let it down a little bit. New rims and thats a clean, sexy looking vt
Yeahh ive been dying to put some sexy rims on it ever since I got it, just haven't had the cash. Will end up putting extractors later on to. Il chuck an interior pic up later.
Nice work on the dash mate, much better than the stock green lolOriginally Posted by ZaRnOw
Nice mate! sweet first car
5k is a decent price for a good nick vt with that sorta mileage
Took some fresh pictures this morning. Pics include the interior, exterior is further down, i blurred out the background for a nicer effect. Any one have any recommendations for future mods or wheels I should get. Wheels wont be for a while, going to wait til the tread is wrecked on these before I get them, got no cash at the moment. Cheers
These pics should do the car a bit more justice.

Engine bay and boot
Engine bay needs a good spit shine, boot just needs a vac.
Blurred out the background. Looks better

Awesome man, love that colour, rare as hell to come out on an exec. Some nicer rims would set it off nicely
