- 2003 VY SS & 2017 AMG A45
Hey people, first post here and it's a long one but it's doing my head in.
So I bought an 03 VY SS a few months back. Genuine 1 owner, low km example that I plan on keeping the factory look etc. (ok, I've done an exhaust etc to give it some poke and a decent note, a set of supersports and dropped it a bit, just to change the look a bit and get it to handle, but for the most part I plan on keeping it as original/factory as possible)
Build plate shows it was built with trim code:81I (black leather?) however the car is fitted with blue leather. I tracked down the original dealership that sold the car and they can confirm by their records car had factory fitted blue leather. This is exactly word for word from their email to me:
Unfortunately I cannot send you what we have, the leather was not added aftermarket and my system confirms that the original interior for this model would have been Anthricite but this car was ordered from factory with the blue leather option
however when I speak to Holden to get certificate for the car they state the car was fitted with black as per the build plate and letter they provided and the dealership is wrong in what they told me. I went back to the dealer and asked again and stated that Holden factory advised that the info you provided is incorrect. They stated again that their system shows 100% was factory fitted blue, however the will not provide me with documentation as the order sheet that shows this contains sensitive info they cannot provide. (obviously original owners details?)
My questions are the following.
1) How can the dealership system show blue, and Holden say black?
2) what would the trim code be for blue?
3) would there be anything else I can find on the car or in it that may back up the dealership claim?
4) was blue leather an available option for 03 SS's?
I am again awaiting on a call from the dealer to re-confirm the info and see if there is ANYTHING they can send me to back up their claim/system info
where to from here???
any assistance appreciated
