Like Katsa said, been advertised a few times - I think for 40

N/a

Katsa · 16-03-18, 20:58

I'd give him 15 and do a 35/40 low mount setup for a weekender, 32k very steep in my opinion

deanoVLCT · 17-03-18, 07:25

I’d pay 18 lol maybe 20 and do same thing as katsa

3438

I think needs money spent on it to clean it up (previous advertisement description I think from memory).

TuxedoCal · 16-08-18, 21:18

I will post pics of the Ebay advert of White VL LE Turbo for $70k. Nice car and obviously heaps of work done to it, performs extremely well.

---------- Post added 16-08-18 at 21:04 ----------

This is a sweet looking car.
I remember looking at one almost exactly like this with the white momo wheels in a showroom at an SA car dealership in the mid to late 90's and it was 6cyl turbo and was about $25 and I couldn't quite afford it and it is still one of my favorite looking VL's along with the SV88's. I actually purchased an original factory tuxedo black V8 VL calais not long after seeing the LE in the car yard showroom and am totally happy with what I purchased. I think if I had a chance to buy an extra VL today to park alongside my Calais it would be a difficult decision but I reckon I would buy a white turbo LE like the one for sale pictured in this post and the SV88 would be a close 2nd choice. Maybe one day I can afford both then I'll have my 3 most favorite VL's.

calaist5 · 22-09-18, 20:07

New one on gumtree (they keep popping up).
#3515 n/a with v8

Tag placement ????
I am not saying anything about this car, but anyone could mock one and add a repro Hdt plate. It’s up to the buyer to check against HDT records.

Think there’s a couple that need to be added.

Katsa · 23-09-18, 10:00

That price though lol

Oliver · 24-09-18, 12:45

Maybe if it was all original it could be somewhere near there but its no where near.

True, if it was tagged a factory 8, I would pay 50

battery · 25-09-18, 00:24

Momo Stars, correct boot lip, retrim the wheel and I'd rather have the LF1 than the turbo above it.

robp30l · 29-10-18, 21:24

Had the chance to buy it back in 2010 for 13k

Probably would have been a good buy for $13k.
Not sure what someone would pay for it now. $65k may be out of most peoples price range. Time will tell.
Here are the screen captures of the Gumtree advert=
