hey peeps Looking at purchasing a 2009 Calais with 125000 on the clock. Any tips on what I should be looking out for in terms of issues? It’s in good condition so for $10500 I’m not complaining. I had a ve and it was a great car- never any rust apparently due to rust gal coating on paint...

Hey peeps, I want to buy a 2013 original Vf commodore international model. I also want to source a secondhand tow bar to fit onto it. Do you think this is an easy find or will the more common sv6 tow bar not fit? It’s just for a bike rack ;)

Thanks heaps mate, I really appreciate the lengthy response… legend… Regarding the car overall it’s in good condition and it was purchased privately. I called the previous owner and he assures me it’s never had a prang but like you said you can never trust. Funny you say about the galvanising...

I just paid $19000 for a sv6 VE 2013 build wagon with 92000kms. A few scratches here and there and some scrubbing on the wheels. I think that price is reasonable. I also think depreciation will be slow as commodore wagons are becoming more sought after

Ill ring around regarding the bush. cheers for the heads up. You sure standard springs will lift the car? Just did some online research on SV6 2013 vs Commodore International 2013 and both specs are 110mm ground clearance or am i not taking into account the larger standard wheel size of my sv6...

Thanks mate,, Ill ring around for a suspension mob to do this.. It only needs to be lifted 10mm and thats enough- any more is a bonus. Is this a big job/ any idea of cost? cheers..

Gday, Just two days ago I purchased a VE SV6 Sports wagon 2013... When going over the top crest of my driveway the middle underbody scraped on the way to work this morning. I could be wrong (haven't had a look yet) but at first glance it appears that only thick plastic plates that are lower...
