Needed a car for all the minions so here she is. Bog stock 2001 VX Berlina 7 seater. Pretty good nick. Headlights need to be either cleaned or more likely I will just replace them. No real plans for the moment. Maybe a better set of wheels. Stereo. Maybe some lowering. Definitely need to plastidip the front grille slats.Feels so weird going from the clubby to this. Still goes pretty good just nearly silent and you just float over bumps.

Blatantly stealing the sellers pictures.

Worst part is I'm using it for work and really enjoying it.... it has 256600 kms. Clubby will be parked up when I get a work car and dem will drive this.

Nice, nothing wrong with a wagon.

I'm going to highly recommend that you change the diff ratio. The ecotec is ok when the car is light but load it up and it's going to labour a bit with the standard gearing, some diff gears will help it to get it moving and generally doesn't effect fuel economy (labouring the engine is just as bad as over-revving it).

I would recommend some of the MACE products as well, anything to improve the low RPM torque of the ecotec is a bonus.
