For the month of March, our biggest selling car (not commercial) was the Hyundai i30.

Make sure you find a way to put a late model Commodore in the shed. It will blow the minds of your grandkids!

The Holden Commodore .....   When they got rid of the the Brougham, I was sad.  When they got rid of the Kingswood, I nearly cried.  When they got rid of the Torana I thought they were mad....    But when they get rid of the Commodore I think people will really miss just how good they were...  specially the last ones ...

Where's the Commodores Ian? I can't see them, are they behind the HSV's?!?

 

I'm toying with the idea of buying a VF Holden SSV ute before the schedule closes late this year or early next year. I just can't get my head around not being able to tow with it. Already talked to an Engineer for ways around it but it's radical.

nice Gene,

its a Holden , HSVs are Holdens that are tweaked.

 

If you buy a Masterton Home, and a few years later get Fred the Builder to put in a new kitchen ( ie,  kitchen tweak )...is it now a Fred Home?...

 

Auto or Manual?...I Iike the manual for a Sunday squirt, but they are a pain every other day...imho

 

Guess if its a special car to only come out every now and then..a manual would be great

an AMG 63 is a Mercedes ??

 

an FPV GT is a Falcon

 

a Shelby GT 350 is a Mustang

 

a Yenko Camaro is a Chev Comaro

 

a HVS Clubsport is a Commodore .......................................................................................   In My Humble Opinion..   :)

 

PS.......  your wife's car is very nice Gene ...

I wounded why the HSV ute doesn't get the bonnet vents, unless it's a photo of the series one.


I have series one SSV wagon and am in two minds to update it for last or not.
Second hand cars are still getting good money, so I figure not a bad time to sell. Only thing is I don't see a lot of deals on the new ones, I guess they really don't eed to. So to update mine is about $59k last I checked. I'm not handing over that much hard earned, so may stay with what I have. It's only done 58000 km's after all.
