Wonder if it would e worth calling Vaux heritage centre for an offer on #00

Anyone know where/ if #47 is for sale?

If they want £15,000 for their 2,200 mile LY, then just think what they want for their 8,500mile VXR

Plus they still use it occasionally on VXR launches, and as i said, it's a bit knackered. 8,500 very very hard miles on that car...

Wow - Is that all thats left!! - mine is still going - although about to fork out on radiator and turbo (manifold cracked) and a warranty milltek replacement due to a bracket failing.... Oh well at least it's still alive, just!!

You missed out waverunner who posted further up,I've added a couple of others too,as well as mine which last time I looked was safely tucked up in my garage waiting for new tyres (or Spring at this rate).

#43 no longer belongs to Glenn.

# 05. Adrian Blyth (EX-Lofty+HFEvolution+Birty)? 38K miles, £18950

now dropped to £17950

[VIX]

Glad to see the yellow and black ones still listed but what happened to the Moonland (pictured below in original full livery - and 4x4 ride height!) and Coral Blue ones?

Edited by VIX, 13 June 2012 - 03:26 PM.

[techieboy]

65, the blue one, is still around, I think.

[LY_Scott]

edit One of the Coral blue one's was #65 its certainly about. It was up for sale for £1 million for ages quite recently.

[rob999]

I thought Steve had sold the Blue VXR to someone abroad, France?

[iVXT]

I would of bought (or tried to buy) #10 the moonland one if I could of tracked it down. All I could find was a couple of pictures both of which didn't have the livery on as above but same reg & car that looked on diff suspension as was running lower. I ended up buying the best moonland vxt I could find instead which, now I've splashed some modding cash on, is much to my liking! Cheers.

[GeorgeBC]

Ive heard the black ones written off? When i got my geo at blink motorsport he told me it was in a breakers yard around the corner. I asked him if it was defo a vxr an he said yes its the only black one and one of 65 vxr's so seemed to know his stuff.

[rob999]

Wasn't the black one Annie's?

[siztenboots]

yup

[VIX]

That's sad. Hope she's ok. Haven't seen her for years.

[VXR]

I've got 47 now if any one would like to keep this list up to date.....I would try but it's not easy doing it on the phone. Thanks

[Jmr]

Hi

I purchased #65 earlier this year from steve, not in France but Leicestershire, although with the recent weather perhaps would be better in France though.
