OK This may turn out to be an interesting thread, I think with the model in question we can include photochopped pictures as well.
I will kick it off with this Peter Brock endorsement somehow reflection it onto his Bathurst winner lol.

Wow Terry I've never seen a UC hatch in that colour, what is it called, looked like mustard.. must be super rare!

P.S Matt whos car is that with the numberplate UC 3800, I love the colour I need to know!

And of course, a modest vote. Gotta love UC hatches, and now thanks to Terry's pic we can prove they're good enough for Brock so piss off UC-H8ers

I think there was a typing mistake in the ad.

It's supposed to read;

Peter Brocks choice; 3.3 litre Torana LX hatchback.

Mick.

P.S. Not that there's anything wrong with a UC.

^ According to his autobiography he genuinely did have a UC as a personal car and loved it. I believe he was looking forward to racing the turbo version but then HDT pulled the pin on that project and he raced the Commodore instead. Fair dinkum.

yup I seem to remember some connections with P. Brock and a UC but that doesn't change the fact he got paid handsomely for promoting them

I would imagine that he would have gotten paid quote well to promote any car that he did, weather it be something that you like or not.

Point is i bet the lady on the ad for treating thrush wouldn't be there if she wasn't being paid well for it. Please dont take this too seriously....
I really like the one on ebay at the moment and the photoshopped one at the top of the page is good to.

All in all though there is no reason to get upset with herne. Uc owners just have to know that your cars were the best engineered torana's available to the public at a reasonable price(reasonable means it excludes the a9x). looks are not everything. Its the way YOU feel about your car. If you love the look of it then good on you. Others who dont are welcome to their opinion.
