Doesn't really look like anything too special. Seats look nice (senator?). Exterior says berlina to me

That's why it's still there I guess and will be for a long long time. The guy looks to be a bit of a farm yard car dealer.

Just for all the non believers out there here is evidence that the VS SL/R 5000 is not like the Tasmanian Tiger and does exist.

One has surfaced in SA and currently appears on Gumtree.

Enjoy if you've got a spare 12K

But then an SS isn't anything better. Can't believe they only ever had the Level 2 Instrument Cluster in them. Honestly probably one of the ugliest clusters ever used in a Holden. The Level 3 is much nicer but without doubt the VL Calais had the best ever installed, especially at night when illuminated.
