VK Australian Dealer Pack

The Australian Dealer Pack carried over into the VK model and was based on the same principal as the earlier model and a buyer could choose from a wide range of options. The cars were based on any model in the VK line-up, ie SL, Berlina or Calais.

The SL Group A was actually an "ADP" also, but the volumes of ADP's produced in the VK series was not a significant amount. Vehicles built in the VK Series were referred to as either 133/134, 233/234 or 333/334 meaning SL, Berlina or Calais (1, 2 or 3 prefix) and manual (4)/automatic (3) transmission.
