Are 5 litre manuals in VS executive rare

In Adelaide on facebook manual wagon

Not sure if the drive train is factory fitted but the way this ad is worded I'd be quite weary and also check out the numbers on the build plate and VIN.

Yep he is dreaming.

I'd definitely agree with you in Adelaide.

That looks to be a reasonable price on the face of it.

Edit - not knowing Adelaide prices of course..

Did vs come in any sort of purple colours.
Doesn't sound too factory, but if all done right and no problems , would be one nice cool car , that's way rarer and better value.
Does look really very nice .

I dunno, looks fairly similar to me. Bearing in mind if the paint is original, it's at least 22yrs old..fading etc will have taken its toll.

The picture I posted looks to have been when that car was fairly new, given the mid-90's pulsar in the background as well,

This might actually be one of those specially ordered custom colours which one would have to pay a small fortune for and this possibly would be the case if the V8 / Manual Gearbox drive train was originally as fitted into a wagon body at the factory on special order basis.

We'll have to agree to disagree.
