The bogan car of choice.
You must be right. Sold my VR for $700 a couple of years ago.
Was it a pile of shoit when you passed it on to some other poor unsuspecting sod?
They usually are.
VR- very rooted.
Our year for "Below the Yellow Line" in my workshop is 2000 these days...VR's easily "qualify for elimination"...
My first car was a VT II, and I loved that thing. Same problems as you, the bloody blinker stalk and door handles went.
The real problem was I was driving around with 2 engine mount bolts sheared clean off for 2+ years, so just had 1 holding the block up apparently. Could have gone at any time. Then the brake lines got a contaminant in them and the whole brake system seized up. And I went through 3 radiator bottles in 6 years. Eventually there was a problem with the thermostat and I cooked the engine.
Good times. I did love that car.
Looks to be a VT and very reliable!

The transmission was a sorry state of affairs but I was totally honest about it. The guys around here seem to be able to fix anything. The guy who bought it was madly in-love with it but didn't have a license or rego andgot caught driving it 200m.. It got on-sold again. There were quite a few interesteds.
The transmission was the only problem - apart from the ceiling cloth
