CV8503 2003 Monaro CV8

[KIWIV8]

I thought I would share a couple of photos of my old Monaro, since traded on a 04 VZ HSV Clubsport R8

Was pretty stock other than:
K&N Filter, and MSD Leads.
Car PC Project with touch screen etc.

Decided to sell it to get some rear doors to make it easier with the child seat, and free up some money.

Regret the decision to get rid of her, but everyones an expert in hindsight.

Current Car:
2002 VX S2 HSV Clubsport

I only have a few photos of the install, and none of it complete. We tore it all out when I sold the car, and sold it to a friend to use on his boat. He never got around to it, so he may want to sell it.

Beautiful car. I wanted a black one but couldn’t find one in good enough nick. I’m happy with what I have but that sure looks sweet.

Took me a while to find a series 2 Auto, in Black with Red leather, and at the right price. Still hurts having to get rid of it. Lovely cars.

sexy as, is that 2005 CV8?
My dad has the same car 2005 CV8 5.7lt 6speed, Black with Black leather interior. Gararged since new 24,000kms should be worth a pretty penny a few years down the track.

No it's a 2003 Series 2. Thats where the 503 on the number plate comes from, May 03. Didn't want the fuel tank in the boot, so I could put subs . Really miss that car. Hopefully I can get another one down the track. Your fathers one sounds mint.
