For sale is the first of HSV's factory-built performance coupe utility - the VG Maloo Ute. Build No. 108 of only 132 made, is in excellent original condition and has covered a genuine log booked 168,737 Klms from new and is running its all original 180kW 5 litre V8 and 4 speed automatic gearbox. For sale from our Sydney Showroom.  

Remember when Holden utes were the tradies workhorse choice. And for real street cred you could opt for a HSV Maloo (Aboriginal for Thunder). The last of the first generation of Maloo Utes is the VS Series and this stunning original example is presented for sale in Alaskan White and features HSV's colour-keyed body kit including proprietary grille, front bumper, side skirts and rear bumper. There was also a sports bar in the rear, along with a HSV monogrammed tonneau cover, as well as badges and decals to let the neighbours know that your Ute was something extra special.

HSV boosted the output of the Aussie 5.0-litre V8 engine with the use of a high-flow dual exhaust system, a free-flowing air cleaner, both of which allowed the engine to breathe better, and finally a recalibrated engine management computer that took the engine closer to the limit. The result was peak power of 180kW @ 4600 rpm and torque of 400nm @ 3800 rpm, an increases of 20kW and 20Nm over the rock-stock Holden V8 ute.

Maloo buyers could choose between a five-speed manual gearbox, which was untouched, or a four-speed auto that was recalibrated to shift cleaner and crisper. When pressed, the Maloo would reach 100 km/h in a fraction over seven seconds from rest; and account for the standing 400-metre sprint in around 15.5 secs.

The Maloo's developers gave the Maloo a sporting feel by using low profile tyres, softer rear springs, along with the front suspension from the SV5000 sedan.

For sale is VG HSV Maloo Build No. 108, one of only 132 VG Maloo Utes ever built. Presented in Alaskan White, this Maloo was originally sold through Sundell Holden, Gordon, NSW. It features the 4 speed automatic gearbox and LSD and comes with the original LOG BOOKS, dealership folder and a set of keys. 

The Maloo is presented in very good original unrestored condition with mostly original paint with some touch ups. The Maloo retains the original engraved HSV front grille, bumper sail plane and side skirts, the HSV-styled five-spoke 16 x 7 inch alloys as well as the original headlights, taillights and even the original HSV tonneau cover. There is a spare factory steel rim with full sized tyre.

A genuine first generation of HSV's highly collectible 'sport pick-up', this is the last of the Australian designed and built production Utes and a great example for any HSV collection. 

The Maloo is offered for sale from our Sydney Showroom. (Ref: 6905)
