    Not sure mate, the Green one is owned by G60JAY also though, it's an SLC (American with 2.8l VR6). He's also got one with AWD that was going to have a 24VT in it, not sure if it ever got finished.

    They're the only VR's i know of in Australia

    Carl there was one that wasn't registered I think came from Japan. Pretty sure Pete Shelley went to see it and made the guy an offer that wasn't accepted? Loon may remember/have seen it too.

    The funny thing was the seller claimed it was owned by Jamiroquai

    I don't think it was from Japan, not sure, but yeah it was a LHD. Jay converted it to RHD and had it on the road. Saw him in 2009 i think, he still had it on the road then. Johnny's G60 was also Jay's.

    1994 - 217
    1995 - 227
    1996 - 136
    1997 - 100
    1998 - 59

    edit: seems I missed the Corrado thing... please ignore me.

    Thumbs up

    Last week a guy in Hamilton sold a VR6 to another bloke in Warwick. It was a dark coloured one, I believe. I know this from the bloke who did the safety certificate on it.
