im looking at buying a vn - vp commodore, what are some of the things i should look out ofr? (aka dealer scam, where they hide things wrong)

what sort of price ? as long as it comes with a roadie, and the body is ok on the outside, inside is relativly easy to fix up.

MUST be on LPG

Avoid series 1 VN and avoid buying from people who cant answer your questions or look like they have any idea about cars.... one mistake I made.

VN is a crap car... get a VP at least, while your there save up for a VR-VS.

I used to own a VN Calais.

My advice would be to look at an Exec and stay away from Berlina/Calais.

Too many electrical things that can go wrong.
