Who here (WA) actually still owns a VL?
As above? Just interested to know...
When was the last time you drove it? When was the last time you worked on it? If its been a while, why?

I still have mine, although it's starting to look pretty sad. I got backed into by a truck which left a few large gouges in my bonnet and can't contact the dude anymore. Paint has faded all over the bonnet/roof/boot. Passenger door lock has been screwdrivered at some point. Tints purpo. Too poor to afford to fix it haha.
Last drove it 30 minutes ago. Last worked on it an hour ago - bought some VY SS wheels. Needs a lot more work though... Bit embarrassed to pull up next to Trent's car, it's so neat! Last edited by Curly; 11-05-14 at 23:09. |

I just got one again. Few weeks ago. But can't drive it. Still can't get it running properly. Needs to go over pits. Work on it last few weekends a bit.

still got mine although trying to sell, drove it to coventrys the other day which is a 2min drive to charge battery and I didn't have anything else at the time. I don't want to work on it anymore but changed the oil and put new exhaust mounts on last week.

Still got the VK after 9 years! Starts fine and runs great, just hard to find the time to get it out these days.
Haven't been on a ct cruise in years.

Obviously still have mine. Runs fine, drove it a few times this year. Still goes like it used to but there's so much I want to do to it.
Basically just maintaining it with basic services etc until I finish studying and can keep adding to it. Have 80% of the new suspension, brake and wheel package in the garage, just lack the time and funds to finish it off. 2015 will see the handling package implemented and probably a light tidy up and late 2015 to early 2016 will see the move to E85. Probably rip out that god awful microtech and sanders backyard wiring job and go for the ever classy motec or haltech flex jobby. I'm lucky enough that while I study I can keep it in my mums garage so it isn't deteriorating too much, only collecting dust.

I still have mine although I have sold off most of the Nissan stuff for it.
Last dove it about this time last year before I pulled the RB25DET out of it and I last worked on it last weekend when I put a new set of rims on it that I have been looking at putting on it for a very long time and then finally found a set from an ex CT member for the right price. Last weekend also saw me pull out the entire front suspention and then put it all back in for.......reasons. Mine will be back on the road reasonably soon, have 80% of the gear I need for it, just have no time to work on it mostly and also have been trying to save for a new 4x4 and I brought a new road bike just before newyears that needs some money spent on it. Good to see heaps of people posting on here again that havn't in a while |

Well, still have my Gunmetal Grey VLCT, haven't driven it for a couple of years, but have been doing a lot of work recently to get it running again. RB25DET is complete, on the engine stand, just need to bolt on a turbo and drop it into the bay. Few other minor things to do and I should be driving it again very soon!
Sold my White RB25DET Calais recently which I really miss, which has been the encouragement to get this one going!

Well Steve, I still have the LE after 9 years. Probably drove it last time Aaron was back. Too hard to pick it up for a drive + working on the wagon now. Drove that last week
