Description
If you're looking for a true driver's car - raw V8 power, rear-wheel drive, and that unmistakable soundtrack - this VXR8 could be for you.
I bought it in London in December 2019 and brought it with me to France. Sadly, I cannot get it registered here, so it's time to find it a new home back in the UK.
Key Details:
Registered: 26/09/2007
Engine: 6.0 LS2 V8 (manual)
Mileage: only ~5,500 miles driven since my purchase
V5C in my name
HPI clear
Condition:
This car is in fantastic condition inside and out. The paintwork is excellent (no scratches or dents), the last MOT in 2019 was clean, and the equivalent French test was also perfect. The car has clearly been cared for and drives beautifully.
Headlining has been fully retrimmed last month - looks like new.
Upgrades & Extras (currently back to stock, but included):
Walkinshaw Performance Line (7,000 miles)
Walkinshaw Forced Air Intake (7,000 miles)
Brand new MWP Suspension Kit (1,500 miles)
Rear Hankook tyres (1,500 miles)
Suspension links recently replaced
Why this car?
The VXR8 is already rare, and finding a clean, LS2 manual is even harder. It delivers a unique combination of muscle car power with everyday usability - a genuine alternative to an M5 or AMG, but with Aussie character and a soundtrack they can't match.
