Only do around 6k miles/year, so my daily is a 6.0l Monaro VXR. 400bhp/400lbft just enough for the commute. Good to see a couple of other Holden/HSV daily cars above.

Drool. Used to drive a Chimaera as my daily before the Monaro.

Zebra, I don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but your new ride looks like it's been in a fairly major front and rear shunt.

Or it looks like a backstreet cut and shut using three different cars which were not even in the same size category, let alone the same model of car.

Get it to a professional for a structural assessment mate, ASAP if I were you as it doesn't look safe.

My Daily, bought with 62k now has 142k. Other than new clutch/flywheel and consumables, I've done nothing to it. Getting a bit tired now though, country roads are taking their toll on the suspension and some ominous creaks and groans coming from the four corners. MOT two weeks time yikes

Been my daily for over 5 years now and used every day. Centre boxes removed and doesn't half make some noise!

Between just before Christmas and a couple of weeks ago mine was the one on the left - 6.2 litre V8 Holden Commodore SS Sportwagon.



A couple of weeks ago it got changed for a 3.6 litre V6 Holden Calais Sportwagon




And yes, the OH's Cruze changed at exactly the same times too.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but is that photo taken at the well renowned VXR8/Monaro specialist Elite car co?

Binky was Death's horse in the Pratchett novels. Binky was white though. Nice car BTW!
