A lot of car for not much money.

How much more power than standard? I would be worried about maintenance bills if it is highly tuned.

The 5.7 V8 is the Chevy LS1 motor isn't it? 345bhp rings a bell but that might be the 6.0 engine.

It's the small boot version, note the two tail pipes either side & the fuel filler up high on the wing.
Without actually seeing the engine then you can never be sure about the engine, but taking into account the year registered, I would say 5.7 LS1, but with small boot & the filler location i'm  :-\
It's questionable that it has 700 bhp :-\ There was some discussion on the HSV forum a few weeks back about those figures.

I think it's a modded standard 5.7 not the 6.0 VXR, including the body & exhaust upgrades but i'm no expert so could be wrong there. I'm going to buy one in the near future but think i'll stick to a standard model with history etc. As one of you said, doubling the BHP will make the engine fragile to say the least & there are insurance costs to consider plus the strain on the rest of the running gear/drivetrain....tyres..... & it's only a claimed power output.

    Whatever it is i bet it goes like merry break & sounds great!!!! 8) :D

It's not the VXR version. It's a CV8 & odds on it'll have the 5.7, but you never can be sure.
