| anything over 200,000kms is pretty much the limit on a good vn now days remember they are 20yr old cars, |

| if you can get one in good nick under 200 000 then you are doing well...as said most are way over that amount but there would be some still left that r under 200 000. Just make sure the trip meter on teh speedo works...if not be a bit sus as id say its done more then what it says lol |

| i looked at a calais last night with a vs 5ltr in it. ITS SWEET AS!!!! straight as all hell, runs heaps better then mine, has stage 2 shift kit, sun roof full electrics, leather interior, lowered, the works pretty much n the guy only wants 2500 cos he's got 2 cars and doesnt need the calais. very impressed with it i think i might buy it |

yeah thats what i thought too! its straight as all hell runs perfectly, i asked the guy how much he brought it for and how much he's spent on it and was quite shocked he was selling it for what he is. he brought it for 4700 spent 2500 on it and is selling it for that too. very suprised! used to thrash my old one quite a bit but stopped doing that after my son was born, (he's now almost 3) never really had any major problems with it till recenlty! it's at my cousins house at the moment he's going to pull the motor out and have a look
