It will be a dealer special from the dealer that sold it originally. So it will have some things on it that were not on the bog standard Amara, it could stand for very special as mjh73 suggested.

Very Short? Something to do with having Single beds? No idea, but VS seems quite common - plenty for sale online in UK (plus YouTubes) though some might be old adverts.

Thanks for that. My wife was right again. I through that it might of had something to do with the name amara meaning princess.
