Anyone know the blue VY CV8 with the NACA duct?

Most curious...

Is that the one that Preciousmetal had for sale, years ago?

I'm sure I slated it at the time.

I'm not seeing any performance mods to warrant the NACA...and an intake up there makes no sense unless it's running a radical setup.

Just noticed the front bumper has added ducts too - the work appears well done, just odd.

Oi you, bonnet looks horrible, never been near that or had that one before as never had an 06 reg one in Impulse Blue only 04-55 reg. the one I personally had was S/C and more tasteful than that

Those mods to the bumper and bonnet just look wrong! That's the first odd looking Monaro iv'e ever seen. Having said that I doesn't look like it's been 'Chaved up' too much!

Preciousmetal, I have to say that is one lovely looking Monaro.....impulse blue with AP's.
I wish I could afford to buy another Monaro...you get some really nice cars in that's for sure.

Tony. It sure was the one I had for a year and then sold to your fellow TVR club member. Hope it's still a lovely car

I'm glad. It was a dealer that had it, and I think I was rather rude about it.

Thanks for that. Try to buy the best ones around but not ones with k..NACA..rd bonnet ducts. Getting harder to find nice ones

James, indeed he is. He took me up and down a 'hill' in Southern Germany last autumn...a memorable experience...still recall the sound of that S/C'ed V8...and what did I do.....went and bought one...from you!!

Don't know if people have seen these launch photo's before, but Julian Quincey at HSV sent them over.....great colour I thought...

[Codswallop]

^^ That looks utterly brilliant

That's a proper Hot Wheels car....love it, now where's my spray can's....
