Going to pick up an '06 VXR tomorrow

Black with Wortec, headers and ripshifter - so seems a good place to start from for a few mods...

I'm thinking over to Monkfish (especially as i live just outside Milton Keynes) for lowering springs, and road response to get me started, and work from there.

Immediate job though for this weekend is the old stereo out, and a JVC double din in, and HSV wheel caps and bits.

Oh, and is 42 too old to be excited ??

Didn't even turn the stereo on in my Ro for the first 8 months! wink I was 44 when i bought mine, but i'm sure some of the folk on here are a lot older! But we're all kids at heart. smile

Had mine over two months now, tried the radio twice, still not tried a CD, haven't had the volume above 8 !

Love the sound of the motor too much wink

The commute wont but when you find yourself driving it on a night for no reason at all, probably on most nights that will
