Why the hate for commodores? Sure the old ones were buckets but anything VT on isnt that bad

Service it well, dont buy a clapped out one and you shouldnt have problems. Mine (VT2) is about to clock over 223,000k's and in ALL that time its only had the radiator get a slight crack ($300 fix, new alloy rad), aircon regassed once ($100) and then just filters, oils and coolant. Hell i drove it for a week or so with half coolant (didnt realise) and its fine.

Of course they arent fun to drive vs an import, but how many people here have one as a daily? Youd be surprised :)

Number of car issues Cassbo has ever had = 1

Number of car issues you two have had = lol

:down:

That turbo that when pop... Well, just for the sake of laughing at you, I hope a tiny tiny piece got into your engin and fuxed your bore... :P

And I don't have issues... I just feel the need to replace things often... :D

Maybe spend a bit more and for 22k you could get 350gt =D, V6 but 208kw and its a nice daily driver and from what ive herd not to bad for fun on the tracks.

+1 on the 350GT

my VX berlina is awesome.

pretty much echo Stevo's comments!

It's great for moving A to B, and towing etc, but it sure as hell is no performance car...

If it is, enter it at the next track day, BOTH OF YOU!

I'm just a tad confused about the word, "awesome" :ermm:

...because Steveo's remark said "not that bad" :D

What's similar between "awesome" and "not that bad" :ermm:

Commodore owners = Bogans :huh:

Jap car owners = Ricers :(

That’s just a load of crap!

I have had Holdens and others for 20 years and worked on jap cars for just as long . Every car make will have its problems.

Buy what suits you .

VX Berlina vs MX5.. The MX5 is probably quicker on the trailer... I was captaining my old mans VX for a bit, had an S1 stag at the same time, standard auto with an exhaust and there was no comparison, Stag was 4x the car..

The second part of this post is full of WIN!!!

I have a 99 stag and a VY S2 SS crewman and the stag is faster but i love my crewman more, it is a lounge chair with a V8 attached. We like the Holden so much we are thinking about selling the Stag and getting a new SSZ wagon for the misses.

But if you are on a budget and you dont need to toe a caravan or car trailer i would get a stag hands down over an older como.
