This 2017 Holden HSV Maloo R8 LSA is one of the marque’s last great performance vehicles, finished in an assertive all-black colour scheme and with low mileage. It is powered by an Eaton supercharged 6.2-litre LSA V8, which sends around 400kW and to the rear wheels via a six-speed automatic transmission with paddle shift, and a limited-slip differential. This example has been with its current and second owner for three years. The odometer indicates just 26,208 kilometres from new. This HSV Maloo R8 LSA is finished in black over a black leather and synthetic suede-trimmed interior, with light grey contrast stitching and carbon-fibre trim inlays. It rides on a set of 20-inch twin seven-spoke alloy wheels, which are fitted with Accelera and Nitto tyres. Equipment includes HSV Performance seats, a multifunction vinyl-wrapped sports steering wheel, a touch-screen infotainment system with Bluetooth CD and DVD player, a six-speaker stereo system, dual-zone electronic climate control, central locking, blind spot detection, front and rear parking sensors, and a reversing camera. It also features a limited-slip differential, traction control and launch control. This Maloo also features AP Racing HSV-branded ventilated brake discs with forged four-piston callipers and the marque’s Driver Preference Dial, which allows the driver to select the most appropriate performance mode for their intended drive. The seller notes the only modification is a custom performance exhaust system. The car is offered with its original owner’s handbooks.
