Picked up a VT Berlina Wagon on Sunday.
Got a touch over 150 000 ks on the clock.
Bit of clear coat lifting on 1 guard and a couple of handles.
Only got a few days rego.
Tyres are just legal and by driving it nothing seems bad in front end.
Confident it will pass roadworthy OK.
Paid a touch over 3 for it.
Too dear?
Did they see me coming?
Will post a pic when I can find my photobucket again.

If you get another 150,000 out of it without too much going wrong it will be a steal.
However I paid $700 for a VT Exec sedan for a bush bomb and we can't kill it

I traded my VT in at 290000km, the only thing I ever did was the radiator.
If you are happy with the car, you payed the right amount.
Change the oil regularly and drive it
cheers

So at $320 it was a good buy.
Glad about that.

Been searching for one for a few weeks.
Cheapest executive I saw went for 700 with a little rego.
Most were running around 1200 to 1500. Again executives.
Had this one at its 200 starting price until a few seconds to go.
The only problem I have found with it is the drivers electric window.
Slow to go up and doesnt fully close without help.
Was a 3 hour trip each way to get it.
But to say I am happy is an understatement.

Not to bad, shoulda been a carton of piss and a pack of Winnie blues though.

Good buy that one.
Bargains are around if you are patient.
But not many Torana bargains unfortunately

I buy VT and VXs for $200 and wreck them out, theres good money in parts just like the old days of people wrecking out HQ-HZs and Toranas.

This one is way too good to part out just yet.
Have seen lots of crapper sedans around cheap.
Mainly VS and earlier though.
Wanted a wagon for work and very happy with the purchase.
Can see many good years left in it yet.
