Well this is my VX. It's nothing too special. I actually bought this car from the auctions as a repairable write off. I've had it relicensed. We did alot of the small bits and pieces ourselves but the panel work was done by a professional.

Honestly, you'd never tell the car's been in a write off. It looks, drives and even SMELLS like it's just rolled out of the showroom. The engine and box feel much tighter than other VT/VXs I've driven. I've been driving it for around 2 months now, but I've just got the wheels on it (looks better than 3 hubcaps) so I'll finally post it.

Looks like they did do a good job of repairing mate . . Nice clean ride you have there

Cheers mate. We bought all the panels new. He did a good job of fixing it except for one weld looking slightly dodgy (but you need to lift the bonnet to see it). We fit all the small parts (headlight, plenum box, coolant tank, aerial ect) ourselves. Doing a lot of it ourselves made it more rewarding when the inspector told me he wished all the cars he saw were like that.

Sorry had to... lol

Very nice car mate, i can't see how it was a write off, how long did it take to fix it all up and get it relicensed?

LMAO nice one, mate.

Thanks for the comment. Not sure how they wrote it off but there was a fair whack. Looked like a falling asleep at the wheel job to me. But if you drove the car now, you'd never tell it's been smashed. In fact it would probably pass as one lady owner never smashed if I took the wheels off.

Hey mate. Yeah I live in Balcatta. Those photos were taken at Jones Paskin Reserve, not too far from my place. Lowering a few inches front and back would look nice XD

Thanks mate. We did a good job on the car, even the guys who inspected it said they wished every car they saw was so good. The only telltale sign is bit of a bodgy weld under the bonnet thanks to the guy who put the panels on and painted it.
