Hey all,
been a bit slow posting of late but anyways......
Ive had a win and found a shmick one owner VL Exec.It belonged to an old fella who had to hide it from his family as they didnt want him driving due to ill health.
Cheeky bugger had it hidden at his holiday house and never had a chance to drive it.....well only 114,000kms so I wanst to sure what to expect on my way to pick it up.
Well this thing is absolutely unmarked nor even the tiniest of dents on the body.Interior is like brand new and even has the factory cassette player.
The bootlid requires new paint as the rear end hung out a little bit from his carport and was exposed to the sun,but for a slab of VB it will soon be fixed
Came with reg and a cleanskin RWC,ie it passed first go with nothing needed.
Its a 6cyl auto that has had the headgasket and coolant replaced recently as the old fella's next door neighbour(RACV Mech) looked after its servicing from day one and was the one who I dealt with during the purchase.
Im a mechanic myself so I could see he wasnt trying on any bullshit during the sale and was a top bloke in all so Im one very chuffed VL owner.
Sadly my old trusty VH which has served me SO SO well for 8 years from towing stupood heavy loads, to doing warp 12 well the trimatic finally said get stuffed Im going to heaven motor still runs a treat
Anyways its looking a tad sad now after removing the good bits and will see its final demise on Flogbay.
Heres the new girl......to be named
RIP Stephanie
