Ohhh mann ! **** sorry to hear mate ..so whats the news will it be coverd? i dont know much about what is an what isnt a write off but the front looks pretty bad, any engine damage?

 

[xxNoblexx]

well unfortunatly she is a write off, just waiting on the exact payout figure. not too sure what car to get now, been searching a bit and feeling uninspired, and dont have alot to spend, any suggestions??

geeeeeez thats bad luck.

get another vs ute. how much did they pay u out ?

 

[xxNoblexx]

they only paid me out 5300, and i dont know wether im gonna get another vs ute, cos right now they are a bit out of my price range given the low payout figure, and im not going to settle for second best. got my eyes on a 31 skyline 2 door GTS-X atm, but i dont know wether ill even have the money for that right now, so i guess ill see what happens

 

[[TOPGEAR]]

u could easily get a nice vs ute for 5300

 

[xxNoblexx]

well i havnt seen any in sa for that price, i dunno what it is, but the price here just seems to be a bit redicilious right now

Most late model VS utes with modifications (rims, hard lid, body kit etc) and average KM's sell for around $7,500 to $10,000. I personally would'nt spend over $9,000 for one.

 

[xxNoblexx]

yeah thats it mate, im not in a position to spend that much money, so i think instead of buying a skyline, and becoming a huge cop magnet, just buy a cheap car for 6 months and save up for either a vu or vy ute, sounds like a better plan to me

What about a Vs Sedan for the meantime? the Sedans are alot cheaper than the utes by a few grand should be some nice clean 6's or even 8 out there for around the payout youll get. dont go jap
