HAS A BLACK VZ SV6 NOW !!!
Hey Ladies and Gentlemen....

I am currently saving money for a car and i have about $11,000 in my bank account and i cant make a decision on what i should get i am wanting to know what you guy and gals think. I am tossing up between either a $16,000 VY which is alot newer or a VN Calais Series 1 which wouldn't cost much at all.

well toss it up you can have a car thats 18 years old or one thats 5 prolly a $10g difference but if you do get the calais with the money you save you will prolly have to spend it to get it right the VN's are prone to problems due to age dont get me wrong the are good cars but im just tellin you from experience with a mates VN he has had constant problems since he has had it

Ive got a vn and havnt had a single problem in more then 2 years and i flog it a fair bit. But if i had the money i would still get the VY just because its newer. Most VNs are run down at the moment. But on the other hand, you could buy the VN and with the left over money you could make a pretty sweet VN. It would be one of a kind, unlike if you get a stock VY it will just be like the rest.

i'd go the vy, im guessing its your first car so you have to have a 6 anyway and the vy exec's are quite comfy inside

I'd say the VY even though it may be a bit extra.
with the VN you would probably spend the extra money on repairs, etc.
not as many problems with the VY and they look nicer :yeah:

VNs1 vs VY, thats the strangest jump I have ever seen?

usually more of a VN/VP or VR/VS or VT/VX/VY choice, sort of question IMO lol
