Someone would have to be pretty stupid to convert a V8 to a V6, and an HSV at that so I doubt it.

I'm guessing someone just put all the HSV bits on a V6........either way, no V6 will ever be rare.

That just doesn't happen. To convert a V8 to a V6 is enough hassle and cost that no one doesn't it. It's cheaper to fit a new V8 then convert. You need another motor, trans, cross members for both, new computer, etc etc. I think you even need to change the cluster too!! BTW did it have a HSV dash cluster? HSV build tag in the engine bay???

Or added HSV badges...

Hangmans right dude a previous owner just added HSV badges n wheels. That all
