Times must've changed alot since i was on my p's in 2002 the bastards are cracking down on everything lately

Avoid holden like the plague their 3 year used car warranty isnt worth the paper its written on im sad that a tree had to die to produce the paper their warranty was written on. Holden are arseholes and everyone that works at holden is an arsehole from my experience thats my opinion GO PRIVATE.

Bit of an update since this thread was started ive decided ill probably keep it unless some1 wants to swap my black vx II ss wsunroof 159,000km (it will be getting its major 160km service of course) for a wh II preferably a black 1 with a sunroof with 180,000km or less. I've spent $550 on...

Go with a supercharged manual vx S im pretty sure their fine to drive on your P's mate

1k 1,200? maybe ill just get some touchup paint and do it in 5 layers over all the stone chips and do what a detailer told me once wrap some very light sand paper around an icy pole stick and rub the parts with the touchup paint till it looks blended then polish the buggery out of all the areas?

as the title suggests im very interested in how much a bonnet and front bumper respray should cost on a black vx Cheers

**** Ones! :rofl:

In my expert opinion it sounds like the car is a piece of **** ! :spot on:

If it is the pulley it wouldnt cost more than $150 fitted

for a good set of pacemaker headers and hi flo cats and catback exhaust with tips id say no more than $1500 and no less than $1,000

pulley sounds like it id take it back too them asap and bust their balls about it before it throws a belt like my ss did take it easy with it till u get it looked at
