1993 HSV VP CLUBSPORT - ALPINE WHITE - 223,441KM INDICATING - 5.0L V8 - VN GROUP A ENGINE BLOCK - 4-BOLT MAINS - 1 OF APPROXIMATELY 40-50 MADE
1993 Holden Special Vehicles VP Clubsport. 4-door sedan. Rear wheel drive. 5.0L V8 petrol, automatic. Indicating 223,441 km. 5 seats.
Description
This is not just any VP Clubsport. The vendor advises this car is fitted with the factory VN Group A engine block complete with 4-bolt mains, and that production was limited to approximately 40 to 50 examples built to this specification. They describe it essentially as a VP GTS IMA Clubsport shell. If that story holds up under scrutiny, you are looking at one of the rarest VP Clubsport variants ever produced and precisely the kind of car that serious HSV collectors chase. The Group A connection traces back to the legendary Walkinshaw program and the VL SS Group A, giving this car a genuine motorsport bloodline that no standard Clubsport can claim.
The photos show a well-preserved, original-looking car. The Alpine White exterior is clean and straight with consistent panel gaps, no obvious rust at the wheel arches or lower panels, and the full HSV Clubsport body kit sitting correctly. That means the front lip, side skirts, and the characteristic ducktail boot spoiler all present intact. The HSV 5-spoke alloys look solid. Engine bay is tidy and honest, showing its age but appearing unmolested with original components and no sign of crude modifications. The boot liner is clean and intact. A towbar has been fitted at the rear, worth noting for purists, but easily addressed. The vendor has not listed any specific condition faults beyond that, which is a good sign.
At 223,441 km this car has covered ground, but for a limited-production HSV with a genuine Group A specification block the odometer is almost beside the point. Provenance is everything here. Verify the build records, confirm the block casting numbers, and get whatever documentation the vendor holds. If the claims stack up, this is a significant piece of Australian performance car history at auction. These do not come up often.
