Full ground up restoration in 2002
Wears an original HDT Director bodykit with 18" wheels
1/4 Mile - 13.8 @ 99.1mph
Never driven anymore
But when it is, I love it to death.
One day I'm hoping for 500kW and N20 and drop the quarter into the 10s.
Stay tuned...Feb 27, 2010

it is a friends car, and has been lowerd and the wheels are 19" or 20" so the ride is HARSH. becoz of the wheels being so big the speedo dose not work coz the speedo runs off the drive shaft. the car is still fun to drive it has a bit of power!
but its hevy and there is at least 2" of dead zone in the stiring witch is a shame, being an 80s car the brakes are not very good and its very easy to lock them up.
there is a lot of mods that can be done witch is good.
it would be a good car for some one who likes fixing things up, and has at least a basic mechaniccal knoledge.Jul 03, 2009

Stanley was my 1st car
Stanley was a reliable friend who took a beating (one big accident and one little one) from me on my P plates.
He finally gave up the ghost when I fell asleep behind the wheel just south of the Hawkesbury river on the old Pacific hwy and smashed into the side of a mountain.
Can't go past the red car with red wheels look.............foolly!!!!!!!
I would like to get another VL but Karena always says no funnily enoughJul 12, 2008

I probably would have never bought a vl, because I don't like the impression that comes with them, but she's a hand-me-down from Dave. This car is the best $1000 I've ever spent, the torque in it is amazing for a 20 year old car, and the steering is super light. My only complaint is the amount of fuel I go through and the mysterious noise coming from the muffler. I also love the exhaust on this car, everyone knows when I've arrived, hee hee.Feb 20, 2008
