To buy or not to buy VT II S pac

[james91]

thats pretty cheap if you can get it, i paid 8.8k for a vt s2 5 speed with few mods and 121,800km in mint condition plus its lots better then my vx auto. you wont regrett owning a manual there lots more fun to drive

almost sold...just waiting on the check on it..providing its just the gearbox i can live with that...not getting my hopes up....but a lil tinting and an awesome polish and its going to be hot as.....*sigh* fingers crossed for Miss L, this would be so awesome if this comes off....oh and 1FATVT thanks for the advice.....will just have to see what the racv dude says....i can suck up doing stuff to it and i am the scary negotiator...im going in at $4600 to play....the manicure and cleavage sometimes works a treat....hehehe to be a girl but if the check stacks up im not gonna let it go....ahhh the joy of a manual.......keep u posted !

get them to check the hoses near the heater tap thing, mine has blown twice now ... then foudn out the radiator had shat itself (hence the issues) just worth a glance.

JSTCOZ funny you should mention that.....im driving a vt exec as a borrow and guess what that has blown ??? took me 2 hours and about 27 lts of water to get home....HILARIOUS when i was sitting on the fwy with steam pouring out and next to me was the booze bus full of coppers who were just staring at me !! booked into the $217 RACV premium test so fingers crossed

problem is any Commodore manual of any type is reasonably rare

you can cruise the various car sales sites and see one or two manuals in a sea of autos

buy it because you may not see one again for a while

 

[Miss L]

TonyJ2X thanks....yep I know...and thats why im so keen (not that the seller knows that).....whats 2 k on a gearbox if thats all thats wrong.....its black and manual...what more could a girl want (well a purple clubsport but thats another story).....only 2 sleeps til i know if its mine will post pics when/if i get it
