Info about this vehicle:

1996 Holden Commodore VS Series II Sedan - Black - 222,984km - 5.0L V8 AutomaticOverviewThe 1996 Holden Commodore represents the final generation of Australia's iconic full-size sedan, built during the VS Series II era when Holden was at the peak of locally-assembled automotive engineering. This particular example is a genuine Australian-delivered four-door sedan powered by the legendary 5.0-litre V8 engine paired with an automatic transmission, delivering the performance and presence that defined the Commodore's reputation. The VS generation (1993-1997) is increasingly recognised by enthusiasts and collectors as a significant chapter in Australian motoring history, combining modern 1990s engineering with the raw character of a proper V8 sedan. At 222,984 kilometres, this is a genuine, well-used example that speaks to real-world ownership rather than garage storage.The exterior presents in black, a classic colour choice that suits the Commodore's purposeful lines. The paint holds reasonable gloss across the body panels with minor stone chipping visible on the bonnet leading edge, consistent with highway use. Panel gaps are even and the body presents straight with no obvious signs of accident repair. The four-door sedan configuration provides practical family transport with genuine rear seat space. Chrome trim shows light surface oxidation typical of a 28-year-old vehicle, adding to the honest, unrestored character. This is a car that has been driven and lived with, not hidden away.The interior is trimmed in grey cloth and leather, with the driver's seat showing wear patterns consistent with the vehicle's age and kilometres. The dashboard is intact with the original instrument cluster displaying the odometer reading of 222,984km. The steering wheel shows honest wear. Climate control and manual windows are present. The cabin retains its original character without modern retrofits, making it an authentic snapshot of mid-1990s Holden specification. The five-seat configuration includes front bucket seats and a rear bench, typical of the era.Under the bonnet sits the 5.0-litre V8 engine, a naturally-aspirated unit that delivers genuine performance and the mechanical simplicity that makes these engines beloved by enthusiasts. The engine bay shows signs of age and use, with patina appropriate to the vehicle's history. This is not a show car; it is a driver's car with real provenance. The automatic transmission is the factory-standard unit for this specification.At the current market valuation for 1996 Commodore VS sedans in this condition, the asking range sits between AUD $4,500 and $7,500 depending on mechanical condition and buyer preference. The V8 automatic combination is increasingly sought after as these vehicles become rarer and values stabilise. This is affordable en
