- VY SII HBD Calais L67
Well peoples, I went for a test drive on the 2003 vy calais s2 (with v6 supercharger) and I must say that it was at satisfactory level. It had a broken volume button, a few noticable scratches on the outside of the car and stains on the carpet but a little bit of TLC and im sure it would've been a good car. Although I didnt purchase it cause it didnt come with a RWC and he wouldn't drop the price no lower than $14k. Loved the sunroof tho.
On the redbook website, the average private buying price for that car with that many kms would go for $13-13,500 kms, which he refused.
I'm having a look at another car tomorrow, its a 2004 vy calais s2, with 143000kms and a standard 3.8l v6 and is supposedly immaculate both outside and inside and minus a sunroof. Only issue is a service is due. Yet the drive away price is $15,600 and has 1 year warrenty....do you think thats a good buy?
I would consider the supercharged calais. Get a quote on the rwc forst as it shouldn't need more than a couple of bushes at worst. Was it leather interior? How many kms on it?
