I was never really a fan of the VT/VX body style, but I couldn't pass up this car, from the moment I seen it, I wanted it. I picked it up at a very good price, due to it needing some work (parts etc). Brought it from a young female (very honest seller) informed me of all the problems she was aware of). Took it for a rwc all I needed to do was get a new windscreen and that was it, I had a car with 10 months reg/rwc for a very good price. Feel free to leave feedback. Other wheels are 18" VE Calais Internationals (originally on the car when I brought it). I would have kept them but I already had 20" Pentagons from my old car, so I switched them around. Then swapped the Pentagons for the 20" e3 wheels, then finally swapped for the Fluxus wheels, small bit of history there haha. Thought id let you see a bit of variety. Its nothing special, but I get looks and very nice feedback everywhere I go, makes you feel good about yourself. That's about it, cheers guys for having a look!

So I think with some of my tax I will be getting a sunroof installed. Does anyone know any good places to go through? Maybe even some pricing/how long it will take (so I can organise a car to borrow)

Bit of an update. So plans (sunroof) kinda been put on hold for a bit. Couldn't afford to throw money into the car, when my grand mothers house has needed some matienenance work, so the car has been put on hold for now. More important matters come first, we all need a place to live right lol. So basically I'll just do some brain storming of what work I want to do for now, probably a brake upgrade, and keep an eye out for new trim, also been thinking of a custom boot layout (so I can have a bit more space, the kicker box takes up to much room my liking which doesn't help when I take long trips or have my god child).

Small update had some unexpected terrible news regarding a family member, the next few weeks I plan to fix up all the small problems (power steering leak, tensioners etc) I believe the leak is just a hose, but I will investigate further this week sometime. Also going to pull the dash fascia off and look at the heater controls as there is a "lag" when changing to face/feet vents.

Ive only got the Fluxus wheels, I started with the Pentagons, swapped them for the E3's and finally swapped them for the Fluxus. Wish I had all 3 to swap anytime lol. In other news my right rear tyre has had to punctures repaired, not having any luck with that at the moment. The other day gave the car I nice detail both inside and outside. Also been thinking of a 6.0ltr conversion (after my p's of course). A super charged 6 will probably go in at some stage before a v8 conversion. Really haven't done anything to the car other than the detail as ive been busy with other things
