Finally a chick with a proper built rig

[@RossReviewsau]

This car is not for the light hearted 😈😮‍💨🇦🇺

[@dirkdiggler5763]

Yep. Very nice rig. Car ain’t bad either

[@markblackwell7927]

Nice to see the younger generation loving the petrol cars...nice build....another great review...thanks Johnny...

[@RossReviewsau]

Glad you enjoyed it mark! Was a great day

[@Beer_Dad1975]

Wow this thing sounds good! Old enough to remember when these were new and this is definitely a huge upgrade! You are right, they are super comfortable - I did a road trip in the back seat in one back in the early 90's and I slept most of the way, the backseat was basically a bed!

[@RossReviewsau]

Right on! Super comfy seats 💺

[@JWOLDING]

Series 200 was released for Australia's Bicentenary in 1988.

[@RossReviewsau]

Thanks for the info!

[@MartinJones123]

Nice VL Commodore that has been tastefully modified... Great review and hopefully you find a VL Turbo someday 👍

[@RossReviewsau]

I hope so too! Have been close a few times n then cars ran into issues will get one on soon

[@Mynty100]

Hec yeah front twin pot break upgrade to the VT style. Much better then factory single pot. Nice car, sounds unbelievably sick. Exhaust must be wicked. Burnt rubber goes hard!! Amazing work to everyone involved in your cars build.

[@RossReviewsau]

Totally agree! Great build she done well

[@pete508]

Who wouldn't love this lol,a lovely young lady in a old school VL beast mate it's magical to see & she's not afraid to fry the tyres either 😁 you don't see many VL's around these days so this was special thanks Johnny brother.

[@RossReviewsau]

Glad you enjoyed it.. Nicole is awesome

[@DCB2018]

I once owned a 1988 Holden VL Commodore Turbo BT1, the most fun car I ever owned, and I miss it so much since I sold it way back in 2005, I have a Kia Stinger GT now for 5 years, but the VL turbo was still more fun too drive.

[@RossReviewsau]

Kia stinger is nice but yeh the VL on another level

[@GoogleAccount-pt4zu]

Another Kia Stinger GT car owner, absolutely love it, also a big fan of the classics too.

[@HaydenSanders-r9x]

Favourite video so far man we need more of these!

[@RossReviewsau]

Glad you enjoyed this one mate

[@abstract0014]

Absolutyly love a V8 VL

[@RossReviewsau]

Can’t not love it eh

[@MalooBadger]

Nice review Ross. What a nice car and lovely owner. This is clearly a car she uses and enjoys, so good to see it not locked away for "investment" or some other silly reason. Our car season is over in the UK, winter has bitten, may get the odd dry day... so jealous of your weather.

[@RossReviewsau]

Glad you enjoyed it.. she was a legend

[@trevorcollard2741]

Thanks Ross for another great Aussie car review. And thanks to Nicole. Love what you've done so far. Awesome. There's more female V8 lovers out there. See them on the M4 & in Penrith. Maybe Jordan's still working on her VY in Penrith.

[@RossReviewsau]

Much appreciated

[@markcalleja8463]

Luv the older commodores vb to vl so much lighter , they handle really well when you do the suspension and sticky rubber

[@RossReviewsau]

Very light cars.. super cool styling

[@GlenAnderson71]

I owned the 6cyl VL years ago, such a awesome car ,loved this video well done

[@RossReviewsau]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@mickp10]

VL's were great cars with the Nissan engine. I had the VL Calais station wagon selling it for about $7k AUD in tbe late 1990's , very comfortable car, but scary in the wet. I knew someone who had the VL turbo, that was a rare car even when new.

[@Jaylaz]

What a mint sound, hell yeah Nicole, beautiful VL!

[@RossReviewsau]

Indeed it is!

[@danriley1980]

I think you would regret repainting the car back to original, the colour it is now (looks like Kimberley bronze) is a way better look compared to the original colour. Awesome car!

[@deevizm8035]

She probably will miss the current colour, but her goal is to make it the original colour so it’s unsuspecting, not make it look nice.

[@danriley1980]

@@deevizm8035unsuspecting?!? It’s a series 200 VL that was an N/A 6 cylinder and now has a V8, it will never be unsuspecting. The car is already modified beyond being a series 200 anyway so why spend the money on changing the colour back to original? The colour the car is now is better than original.

[@deevizm8035]

@@danriley1980 because when it’s sitting there turned off, it will look original. Then when she turns the key you will recognise that it’s not a slow ass na rb30. If you don’t like it, that’s ok, but it’s her car and that’s what she wants. I like it because that’s how I built my crown athlete v. Looks like a standard crown but once I turn the key and you hear it, you recognise it’s far from standard.

[@danriley1980]

@@deevizm8035 All I said that I think she will regret painting the car original colours, I’m aware it’s her car and she can do what she wants and so be it. The work she has done to that car is fantastic and it should be admired. As the car sits you can tell that its modified without it running.

[@chriseveringham5013]

Good one John such a fun review,onyx Nicole,wastnt expecting that tyre frying

[@RossReviewsau]

Me neither🤣

[@danb5944]

Reminds me of my old 5 lite vl with its full factory 110 kw engine..was a great car for its time

[@julianalderson3938]

First one was low all new suspension. Was a great handler. Money well spent.

[@zacborchi9029]

Thanks Ross for another great car review gotta love a VL Holden 👌👌👌

[@RossReviewsau]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@kitemett]

Kudos to the owner/ Thanks for sharing. Enjoy.

[@RossReviewsau]

She’s a legend

[@hamishbayer7065]

I watch all off your reviews,thats probably the best one yet,that vl has heaps off character,it's so original and a strong 6 litre to improve its performance,good on her 👍

[@RossReviewsau]

glad you enjoyed it :)

[@ethancoleman7797]

Mint VL wish I had one. Great video man!

[@RossReviewsau]

Thanks! Nicole is awesome

[@peterbennett2167]

So proud of you Nicole. Neat VL. You roc. There is no substitute for cubic inch.

[@RossReviewsau]

She’s a legend 😮‍💨👏

[@Buzz.Scholz-vi1ed]

30 plus year old car and you don't want to break it? Mate, the bits that make it go are not 30 years old! Got 2 VLs in my shed. A wagon with 1,380,000km on the clock. I used it as a pilot vehicle escorting oversize loads all over Australia for years. More than 200 trips across the Nullarbor! And a '88 SL sedan with 715,000 km on it. Of which I've driven at least 400,000. Both manuals. Both still have their original RB30 engines. Never been rebuilt. Obviously I live in the country and anywhere you want to go is a long way from here haha. Still reckon nothing drives as nice as a vl.

[@CargiantwaAu]

What a weapon 😮 nice car too

[@RossReviewsau]

🤣💀

[@Tk-ou9ec]

I love the VL. It would be the only commodore that I would personally own. 6 or 8. Either way. Very nicely done up. You go girl. Fully sik ey bro. 🤘

[@RossReviewsau]

Good choice! I’d kill for a mint turbo

[@borisristic6199]

What an awesome ride

[@RossReviewsau]

Gotta love it

[@dankybras8585]

That Calais interior is mint 👌

[@RossReviewsau]

Super comfortable

[@ginolopriore9708]

I think stock interior, considering it's a limited edition 200

[@julianalderson3938]

Nice vl. Had 2 both wagons. Miss em specially the manual was na 6. But went great.

[@BrentonCrude]

I love the V8 throb throughout this video. It's so sad that there has been a dramatic shift in the automotive industry and in Australia's outlook, and as a consequence, cars like this have passed into history.

[@RossReviewsau]

It’s terribly sad.. 😞

[@ryno1808]

Love the power steering windows 😂😂😂 nice car nice review mate

[@hoonaticbloggs5402]

Quality burnout . Love it 🇬🇧🇬🇧 These were called an OPAL senator in the U.K.

[@80ZX]

Need to see more old-school Aussie muscle, particularly 70's.

[@RossReviewsau]

I hope to show them off! Its not easy to find owners willing tho

[@ashleyrichards4241]

Vls have always been a lighter better handling variant. HEAPS here in nz

[@RossReviewsau]

They go hard

[@goz7569]

What exhaust system does it have? Love the sound!

[@patrickaussieMilartry]

VK and VL best ever Commodore's made. Just my opinion being a FORD man. And probably the last of the good Holdens made.

[@RossReviewsau]

They are both epic! I very much enjoyed the 1000hp VK I did In Sydney also 😂😅

[@azayomi]

Love it ! Great car, awesome video !

I owned a 1988 VL Commodore (Ex- police car, South Australian Interceptor) powder blue colour, 304 (4.9), certainly did not sound like this beast with the LS2 6 Litre
