HSV Clubsport impessions in auto form c 1999
Discussion
I’m driving a V reg HSV Clubsport in auto form (5.0 ltr iron block V8) & “ I’m Lovin it” – ha, ha, bet that sort of comment is the last thing you would expect from manual V8 HSV.
Seriously folks, might lack brutal power but enough poke to sort most out, liked the auto box, engine note & general refinement (has the Carlson seats) and it sweet to drive. If I was going on holiday with a full load I would choose it over mine. It’s a loaner from LSV while mine is being fettled, think they want £14k for it with 37k on the clock; no doubt they would be open to offers if anyone was interested.

That's great mate,
As I have said before the auto's can be fun, plus they are great when on a long trip (like in Aus)no need to change gear. Foot down & lets go !
People in the UK don't like them because most of the time the auto is behind an under powered buz box.
"When it's a V8 mate she's great".
This car from LSV, it's the Brownie Gold colour one isn't it mate. Saw it when we where up there last.
Good buy if your like me & can't afford the extra for the LS1 manual.
