VF Sandman wagon and ute

[hx-sandman]

We'll have to see what the v-series database throws up as the numbers start coming in. I don't know if these will be consecutive builds?

Maybe it will be identifiable via the trim code? I had a VU SS Fifty and from memory they had a trim or option package code on the plates that separated them from SS

I don't totally agree re: the physical numbering of cars and resale value. If it does stay a limited run then the market will know down the track that only x amount were done and with demand scarcity will uphold the value regardless. Just as we know that Holden only made 1600 HQ SS, or 600 odd LE Monaros. None of them were numbered. Or as you know Inners how many later series vans were done, they definitely command more than their ute counterparts on scarcity alone.

Yeah I get what you are saying. But for the sake of numbering them like they did with the Lowndes Commodores it adds to the prestige.
Ford 100% got it right with the XC Cobra where as GHM failed with the LE Monaro. Numbering is not a lot to ask. As with all collectables the lower the number or a favourite number would add a premium.
I.E: Number 05 Brock Commodore would command extra resale value if for no other reason than the novelty. Same would be true of the one numbered 250 of 250 etc.

Maybe it will be identifiable via the trim code? I had a VU SS Fifty and from memory they had a trim or option package code on the plates that separated them from SS

That is potentially true and one to look out for.

Awesome! Bet you'll be up early tomorrow

Ute looks great Dave. I wonder if any other forum members have ordered one.
