1998 HSV Manta (VT)
A striking late-1990s HSV performance sedan, finished in Red and presenting as a largely original example of HSV’s refined V8 four-door offering. This Manta combines classic HSV styling with everyday usability, making it an appealing modern classic.
Powered by a 5.0-litre V8 paired with an automatic transmission, the HSV Manta delivers smooth, torque-rich performance through the rear wheels, complemented by the comfort and equipment expected of a top-tier HSV sedan of the era. The vehicle presents with fresh paint and retains its original HSV character throughout, including factory HSV wheels and interior appointments.
HSV Manta (VT) Model History
The HSV Manta nameplate dates back to the early 1990s and was revived in the VT era as a more luxury-focused alternative to the Clubsport. Based on the VT Commodore platform, the VT Manta combined HSV’s proven 5.0-litre V8 with a more understated exterior, enhanced interior trim and a strong focus on comfort and refinement. Built during the final years of HSV’s iconic Holden-sourced V8, the VT Manta represents the end of an era and is increasingly appreciated for its balance of performance, practicality and understated HSV pedigree.
