1992 Holden VP Commodore HSV Nitron - Red - 179,195km - 5.0L Supercharged V8, Automatic
A 1992 Holden VP Commodore four-door sedan badged as an HSV Nitron, finished in red. Rear-wheel drive, powered by a 5.0-litre V8 petrol engine paired with an automatic transmission. Odometer indicating 179,195 kilometres. Seating for five.
Description
The HSV Nitron was a limited-production variant from the VP era, taking the 5.0-litre V8 and adding a supercharger, upgraded suspension, body kit, and HSV interior appointments. These are uncommon cars, and they rarely come up for sale. This example carries the correct "Supercharged" and "Nitron" badges on the boot lid and front guards, along with HSV emblems throughout, an HSV rear boot spoiler, twin exhaust tips, and the IRS badge on the centre console confirming independent rear suspension.
Presentation is honest and unrestored. The red paint has faded and lost clear coat across the bonnet and roof, while the sides and rear retain better gloss. Panels are straight with consistent gaps and no obvious collision damage. The car sits on aftermarket five-spoke alloy wheels (not the original HSV items) with lowered suspension. Inside, the grey velour cloth interior is complete and original with no tears, though the seats and carpet show soiling consistent with 30-plus years of use. The dashboard is intact with no visible cracking, which is notable for a VP. Manual windows are fitted on the rear doors. The engine bay houses the 5.0L V8 with its factory red-painted intake plenum and an aftermarket pod filter, and it presents in honest, un-detailed condition. An original Holden VP owner's handbook and service logbook with dealer stamps up to at least the 110,000km interval are included.
This is a project-grade HSV Nitron rather than a show car. For someone looking for a rare VP-era HSV with the supercharged V8 as a weekend restoration or club car, the bones are here. The badge is genuine, the body is straight, the interior is complete, and the documentation adds provenance.
