Nothing new on the market worth going into debt for. You can get a decent 5.7 example for around $10,000 these days.

i like the look of the VE utes, i know every bogan has one, but i rate em. (i am a bug eye owner) and the e85 option from factory is pretty cool,

E85 isn't terribly available . And the VE build quality is sub-par. I wouldn't touch one with a barge poll.

Yeah I'd still get a VY/VZ if I was to bogan it up for a while. I hate the VE's interior. Exterior, chassis and motor are a bit better thought but you do have to live with it. VE's too big as well for me, I am only average height and find it too much of a lump to drive.

Also, if you ever have any intention of modifying it. The Cable throttle 5.7 in the late VY is the cheapest and easiest.

Yeah fair enough. Anything after VY Series 2 has electronic throttle. Major PITA IMO.

Jase, do you have Home Contents insurance with Fusion cover? You can generally claim a dead fridge on that

Cheers but the motor/compressor is fine.
Something elese has farked it up.


Morning All,

any Melbourne Members on here? im looking at moving to Melbourne next year and was hoping someone could give me a rough idea on any areas that are good for renting? both quality of the area and price wise


Im not a renter (never have been) but if you post up areas I can inform you of their lever of dodgyness.

If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?

I've heard that, which I find odd, because I always play CD's while driving down dodgy roads.
