Info about this vehicle:

1996 Holden VS Ute S - Blue - 152,352km - 5.0L V8 ManualThe VS-generation Holden Ute represents the final chapter of Australia's locally-built, full-size utility vehicles. This 1996 S-badge example carries the iconic 5.0-litre V-angle eight-cylinder engine paired with a five-speed manual transmission, delivering genuine driving engagement and the raw character that defined Holden's ute heritage. With 152,352 kilometres on the odometer, this is a genuine working vehicle with honest kilometres and authentic patina.Presented in blue with a burgundy accent stripe, the exterior shows the expected weathering of a 28-year-old utility. The paint holds reasonable gloss across the panels with minor stone chipping visible on the bonnet leading edge. Panel alignment is straight with no evidence of major impact damage. The single-cab configuration presents the classic two-door, two-seat layout that made these vehicles practical and uncomplicated. Alloy wheels show light kerb rash consistent with working-vehicle use. The bed is presented with a rubber liner in serviceable condition. Interior trim shows wear consistent with the vehicle's age and kilometres, with some dashboard cracking visible and seat bolsters showing use. The manual gearbox operates through all five ratios, and the rear-wheel-drive configuration remains true to the original engineering brief.VS Holden Utes have become increasingly collectible as genuine examples of Australian automotive manufacturing. The 5.0L V8 engine is a known quantity for reliability and parts availability. At the budget end of classic ute values, this represents accessible entry into Holden ownership for enthusiasts, restorers, or those seeking an honest working vehicle with character. Full car respray. Comparable examples in similar condition have traded in the $4,000 to $6,500 range depending on specification and provenance.Features* 5.0-litre V-angle eight-cylinder petrol engine* Five-speed manual transmission* Rear-wheel-drive configuration* Single-cab, two-door, two-seat utility body* Alloy wheels* Bed liner* Right-hand drive* 152,352 kilometres on odometerCondition Notes* Minor stone chips on bonnet leading edge* Light surface rust visible on spare wheel well* Minor clear coat failure on bonnet* Light kerb rash on alloy wheels* Interior shows wear consistent with age and kilometres* Dashboard cracking present* Unregistered at time of saleSpecificationsYear: 1996Make: HoldenModel: UteSeries: VSBadge: SBody: Single Cab UtilityEngine: 5.0L V-angle 8-cylinder petrol, naturally aspiratedTransmission: Manual, 5-speedDrive: Rear wheel driveOdometer: 152,352 kilometresColour: BlueSeats: 2Doors: 2Steering: Right hand driveEngine Number: VU641786Licence Plate: OH5V88 Minor stone chips on bonnet leading edge, light surface rust on spare wheel wel
