I drive one every day, that's what it was built for.

Question to the people who have bought an VFII SS/SSV/SSV Redline - are you driving these quite regularly (every day drive) or just parking them up at home as your weekend ride?
Only reason I ask is I hardly see any on the roads. I'm in Perth and regularly commute back to Sydney and in both cities spotting a VFII is like playing "Wheres Wally"...

There are two people at work that have VFII. One an SSVR, the other a V8 Calais. Both here every day.

We also have VE I SSV, my VE II SSV Z and a VF I SS in the car park, along with a daily driven XJS Jag plus other random appliances.

I drive mine most days, also use a work vehicle at times so the SSV will sit for around 5 days. Then there's the Harley and the missus MX5. So the SSV is slowly getting k's up on it. Doesn't help when work is only 5 minutes away by car.

I’ve put about 7k km on her in the last 15 months.

I drive it as often as I can, I just don’t need to drive daily. Mostly on the weekends or Wednesday nights at WSID.

There are at least 3, including mine at the carpark in North Sydney I go to each day for work. There is also two Clubsports and occasionally a GTS parked in there too amongst all the BMW's and Mercs

I know this has probably been asked & answered hundred of times before but....
For the electric handbrake can you activate/deactivate it without having to start the engine up?

Turn the ignition on(don't put your foot on the brake).

I did try that the other day but the handbrake would still not release unless i was suppose to hold the start/stop button down for longer without my foot on the brake or is that Accessories mode im thinking of??
