Some discussions today on here got me thinking I should post some pictures.
I moved to Australia last March from the UK, and fancied a car that made some noise.
A bit of hunting around Redlines almost had me set on one, but then randomly spotted a low mileage 2014 HSV. I'm not a fan of forced induction noise, so last of the LS3s was a great fit.
The colour, the intake sound and the seats sold me.
It was my daily until Xmas, but now returned to rightful Weekender status!
It's had some good run outs to Dandenong Ranges, Mornington Peninsula and Yarra Valley. Love it every time I take it out, comfortable but sharp and raucous when you want it.
Now I've got more time in another car, starting to think of things to do.
It's stock, so getting tempted by an OTR and tune.
I also need to give the bimodal valve switch a go.
(Numberplate surround is gone, LOL)
