For the price you got a bargain! Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/22816-bought-a-car/#findComment-338150 Share on other sites More sharing options...

VS SS is a very nice car and the 5 speed makes it even more fun. Look after it and stay away from tree and power poles!

Adam Here since the start... Lifetime Members 10,282 Member For: 22y 19d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Posted 22/01/06 02:41 AM Share Posted 22/01/06 02:41 AM Should be a reasonable car.For my first car I was tossing up between a VS or a EF. Once I compared the interiors the choice was easy, EF it was.The SS's of that vintage sound pretty good I think.
