Hell yeah its a huge step up from the VY. In absolutely every aspect!! It doesn't feel real yet :D

yeah I went from VT Calais to VE clubbie dont worry mate it doesn't take long to get used to the VE's blindspots and power. They handle amazing stock and are brillent cars to drive.

if you dont mind me asking, how much they give you for the vy? i wish i could get into a senator but only on p's :( seeing as ive just sold my ute

Aww, yeah, that's a bit of a sore point... lol. Used Car Salesmen are one of the lower forms of the human species! VY got traded for a mere $5000. They took $8990 off the price of the car, but on paper it was only 5g.

Start saving and by the time you're off your P's it'd be well within your reach mate!

Yeah the 'A' Pillars are massive! lol, bloody safety features - airbags. :p

Getting used to the car now, been in it for a little over a week or so. Feel's so nice, only thing is the front bumper is wayy lower than anything else I've driven, even lower than the VY was.

Very nice pick up man, I can't wait til i'm off my P's i wanna pick up a HSV Grange or something along them lines.

Cheers man, time flies so start saving. If you change your mind by then, it'd be a good house deposit! :p lol. There was a Grange there next to this one, definately a nice Sled.

It was either Cam and diff gears for the VY, or an upgrade.
The VY was getting old, had close to 200,xxxkays on it, I had it for 7 years - time for a change.

What's with the ferret type furry thing haha?

LOL, Long-ish story.

Shortened version:

When we were younger, family vacation, young kids with firearms, (me 13, sisters' 15 and 17, with very close supervision), Sister is a better shot than me (I got a rabbit - Thumper - think Bambii the movie), dead Fox, pliers, Fox Tail, used to hang Fox Tail from my second car, got old and fragile, always whinged how I liked the Fox Tail in my old car, Christmas Present, new Fox Tail, hanging in Senator, Smile on my face from memories as a kid. :D

Keep up with that? :rofl2:

Haha makes sense.

Yeah soon as i get a tune on this I'll be saving for sure.. If I've had my car for just over a year, and spent 14k on it, I should be able to save for sure..

Only problem is i want a grange or statesman but in Manual :(
