Having just completed an architecture assignment on the Opera House’s designer I can help you out here :D
They were a limited edition (500 built with individually numbered dash badges and key rings) released in 1988 to coincide with the 15th anniversary of the official opening of the Opera House. They were only made in VL and only V8’s. As far as I know there are no VS models although the VS build years do cover the 25th anniversary, so there is a slim chance they did another one, but as far as I know there was just the original VLs.
Hope that helps.

Sounds rare... like a one-off kind of rare o_O
Ask for a pic of the compliance plate. The model number needs to end in A9Q robe legit.

The VL dash badge looked like this:

And I’ve actually just seen this VP:

So I may very well be wrong :eek:
