Owned by a chap with the username Kurgan on VXRonline. Pop over there, and have a look at all the posts that he has put up, to get an idea of the sort of owner he is. Looks like he upgraded from an Astra VXR but isn't really sure about having such a monster mota - let alone being greedy enough to have two. wink

Thanks mog thumbup I wonder if it is an LS3 though as the guy himself questioned if they did an LS2 in 2009. Maybe i read it wrong!

The way I read it on VXRO, he didn't put that it was a 6.2 because he thought everyone would know it was a 6.2, and didn't realise there were any 6.0 available in '09.

I think your right. I just wonder if there's anything wrong. It does seem a great price.

Yip seems fairly well priced for a manual with that mileage and exhaust already done. Cant be too many issues with that mileage as long as it hasnt been pranged, or thrashed excessively, didnt get that impression from the posts on VXRonline.

Price is a touch high but im sure you can negotiate!

Also factor in you will need loads of new cleaning stuff for solid red

Price is the same as dealers were selling the final batch for iirc? I know it has the Wortec but the "perceived wisdom" in used car sales has always been that aftermarket extras don't affect the price much. Then again, the cheapest LS3 in the classifieds on hre is £25k with no extras.....

I think you'll be lucky to get him to come down £300 on that price.

It's probably the price he paid for the car, but that's because they were that cheap in July. Prices are a lot higher now that there are less available.

I don't understand why you were thinking one was over-priced, but are then contemplating another that is £3k more. blabla

I dont know really. Col spoke to the guy that owns it and he has sort of fallen for that one. Looking logically it makes no sense but he recons that has our name on it. Strange but true.

I do know what you mean. I've been prepared to pay over the odds for exactly what I want. That's the problem with limited production runs I suppose.
