It'll have G80 as the code on the compliance plate.

I would suggest its only an SS, does it have the hsv tag on it?
The boot badges are the right clubby ones, except for the 185i one thats from vr/vs clubbys, and the bonnet badge is a vr/vs one. Think the spoiler is just the SS one too....
SS interior was all red and checkerd wasnt it? the clubby is a bluey grey with with bucket/racing seats.

It don't think it's even an SS, it's hard to tell from those pictures but my IRS eyes don't see camber on the back wheels and the rear track looks pretty wide but yeah an SS will have IRS and a LSD.

Anyway im backing it being a ex highway patrol live axle executive made into a SS copy with a kit, lets see if I'm right :)?

IF IT WAS AN SS!

Wheres the Spotlights???

Even VP clubsports have spotlights & different grills...

No one noticed the HSV bonnet emblem is a VR/VS HSV badge...

Not one ss detail on the car either....

No SS or Clubsport, not 1 lil bit of camber on the rear wheels at all..



IMHO!

You just got royally rooted on a 5ltr VP Exec Wank Edition...

The compliance plate should tell the story when he gets the car on Wednesday.

The only problem is if it's a fake SS then it's value is probably half the sticker price, apart from that it does look a nice enough VP
