Hi All,
Currently looking at a VY series 11 2004 50TH Anniversary model.
Anybody know much about these? Cannot find any info or specs on the net.
Seems to not have the TC button alongside the gear shift. Cheers Dan

Thanks for that. I have noticed the 25TH Anniversary models popping up on sites ,sales etc in Aust.
This one is definitely badged a 50TH Anniversary edition. Have seen other ones for sale as well.
Have pics of car and close uo shot of badge at rear.
May have been a NZ only badging for 50 years of Holden in New Zealand.
Your description fits this model perfectly . The car I am looking at is mint and a dark cobalt looking
grey colour.
Do you think not having the TC is a big minus for it?
Cheers Dan

That colour is called Tungstan Mica.
I think the Calais, SS sedan and SS wagon were the only VY I & II models to get T/C. My VY SS Ute didn’t have it, it wasn’t a big deal to me.

Thanks again. Definately the same car then.
My Berlina VY SW has TC and the Acclaims over here have it too. VY executives don’t have it.

I own one of these in New Zealand I noticed that aswell, no TC button but it's decked out with all the little things such as Reversing sensors, six disc blaupunkt radio and alloy interior trim like the door handles and stuff. I thinks it just comes with all the small stuff you'd pay a little bit more for at the dealership.
