Hi All. Happy Christmas.

Looking to buy a VY Ute, LS2, met a guy a few months ago driving a red Ute in Weston Super Mare (cheers mate) pointed me here, been looking around particularly like the one badged as the VXR 600, is there any thing on offer? now or soon? Maloo preferred,

Thanks Charlie F

If you insist on an LS2 rather than LS1 you gonna struggle. I think i can count the number on one hand.

I know of some SS utes for sale but no maloos at the moment. All autos though.

Yep!

Thinking about it i can think of exactly 5, including the VXR600. There may be others, but i'll be suprised if its more than another couple!Oh, and one of those has been trashed i believe

Ah! the penny drops, Monkfish 1, he did mention monkfish, as he had some work done by you, anything likely for sale soon?

There are plenty of ss utes about, mostly 01 and 02 models. Rather less 03 and 04 though. However, they are nearly all autos. If your happy with an auto, it should be easy to find one. Manaul is a bit more of a problem.

Maloos are rather harder to find in any form.

Currently the only one i know about is a 2003 hothouse green auto (not mine but identical) on very low miles.
