I've just bought a 57 plate VXR8, auto, in black, thought I'd say hi!

Wondered if it had been anyone's on here? Has a walkinshaw exhaust I think (oval tips) black wheels and rear tints if that helps.

Only had it since the weekend but ... what a car!

Give Precious metal a shout on here, he owns Elite Car Sales in Kingsley and has prob sold more Monaro's/VXR8's than most so knows a lot about these motors.

I bought mine in Warrington, they're not a monaro/vxr8 specialist, but they do have a lot of nice motors.
I'll be looking for a good independent near Warrington or Birmingham for the next service if anyone has recommendations?

Nice. And I know it often feels like it on the motorway, but with the reflection it looks like you really do have a BMW parked in your boot.

Sort of, well some of the time anyway! I guess you're not far away then, given your username?
