It was the First Maloo to come into the UK, back in April 2002, also featured on the cover of our Holden Uk Register Magazine (Holden Business) Sept 2002.

Like the plate.

Rob.

Look at the wing on it Trev,

Either the welsh plugs are about to go, or have already gone, and the tranmission is about to. Got 100,000km before the welsh plugs went and 260,000km out of the gearbox, and mine was pretty much all highway driving. Other big problem i had with the VN was the power steering rack going every 80,000 km.

Yes mate I Did, but didn't want to mention that one.

See the Question, bottom of his page, I asked about the 2L engine, don't think the VN came with a 4Cyl, smallest was a 3.8 V6. The owner showed pic's of the engine, 2000. stange, 0 to 60 in about 3 Days.

Regards,
Rob.

Yeah the VN came with a 2L same as the VL, but its not the Nissan 2L 6cyl of the VL, but a crusy 4Cyl "World motor" 4cyl. used in Asia etc. Bad idea, hence VP model and up dumped it.

Krist,
I thought they dumped the 4Cyl back in the 80's after the non selling Commodore Royal, the Blue 4Cyl things, named after the Queen.
