vt v6 base model can range from cheapest ive seen is $4500 al the way to upper class low kms $9000

v8 base model through to high end 6000-14000

Perhaps even consider a vx, if you are after a exec with lower k's and probably not much more $...

Oh yes welcome aboard!

Also there is a sticky at the top of this forum that has a link to common faults of vts etc. Good place to start if you are looking around and want to know what to look out for.

thanx guys 4 your replies,

Yes I'm after a V6 model.. im intending to spend about 5000$ on it.. I just want something basic to start of with and ill build it up..

Is the 4500$ an auction price. I've heard they come cheaper at the auctions but would love to know the range before i go.

my friend bought his green vt with 17's and lowered suspension for 4500 just needed 2 new tyres and a tail light, the other one was cracked. in canberra vt's are cheap i see them go for 5 here all the time, bought my 2000 vt acclaim with all power options for 5000.

thanx, this place is not far from where i live, must check it out..

but think its also another risk to buy cars with no RWC

True but think of it like this, The price is low and if your lucky to get say a repo car it's cheap for that reason And you get what you pay for..
Like my car i couldn't drive it so in some ways it was a large risk just buying it even though it was very cheap, It wasn't until i had the car repaired i finally drove it and all was very very good so i was happy then.

You might be able to have an RACV check it over there?
