OK, so you Aussies reckon us Kiwi's are a little .... special
 But this is beyond a joke. So they put a XR6T into a VL, but I've never seen this before! The car, a V6 Executive no less, is in a car yard here in Rotorua. The "modification/improvement" is a B series XR8/GT bonnet bulge! Give me strength!

I regularly see a mid-90s Fairlane with the same bonnet bulge.
Looks OK actually |

I used to see a vx ss with a clubby kit reppin a boss bulge for a while around the Perth cruise scene. Had the plates HAMMATYM. Looked tidy but that bulge was out of place...
Also see a pajero or land cruiser (all mobile road blocks to me) that has one around my local area. Does not go with the shape at all and sounds stock so obviously doesn't need it either... |

Yeah well. ....
Had a FG XR8 4 years ago. Since have only had a BA XR6, Mondeo XR5 Turbo and a Focus ST. So you could say I'm in withdrawal!
