Hi Folks,

Just a quick post to say hello and hope everyone is fine and dandy.

I've been lurking ever since I had to sell my LS1 VXR Monaro a few years back. Finally circumstances have allowed me to get another, as it was almost like part of me was missing ever since I watched my last one drive away down the road.

After what felt like an eternity of searching, I now have a lovely 6.0ltr black VXR Monaro. It already has the all important wortec exhaust and as an added bonus an LPG conversion which brings down the fuel costs considerably.



Anyway I've got a stupid grin on my face again and look forward to getting back into the crazy world of the HSV & Monaro Forum

Quick question to solve an on going argument with missnogrip, does the LPG lower the road tax? Just be nice to win a row for once!

Yes so long as you have a figment and certification document. Ie you can't just fit it yourself, a registered installer needs to certify it before you can claim a discount.

Apparently so, mine hasn't been registered for a reduction in road tax but I have the certificate and all the original installation details so it's something I will be looking into.

I think that's the reason the last owner didn't bother. After a quick google search it's looking like £10/£20 max

Lovely. You've summed up why I don't sell mine. I'd regret it instantly and won't find another like it (at least, that's my thinking).

Enjoy.

yep I missed my old ro as soon as it went but didn't miss the r8 as much but then saw a photo of it last night and realised just how much fun I had in that too

hopefully back in the fold this weekend

Yup, I'd say that was a fair swap, but Stig may have to shell out for the batteries. hehe
