Well I can't pay £55K for a new GTS, and the factories close down next year anyway, so no more Holden's for me.
The question is, when do we all defect to Ford?....Think about it Monaro's are 10yrs+ old already!

John you have to look at it another way, just because Monaro are 10+ years old like mine they stil have the get up and go, to give that The question is, when do we all defect to Ford?....Think about it Monaro's are 10yrs+ old already!

grin every time you take it out. Car running gear is so easy to work on and parts are easy to obtain I dont think that the ford would have the same following of passionate people that you get with the HSV crowd, and such good reliable after care likes of the fish and walkinshaw' This is what car ownership is all about.My car as not seen the inside of a warm garage since new, it sits out in all weathers and those of you that know me I am sure would agree that the car looks well at meetings.
Point I am making is why change your car like some change phones, just to have a up to date boring European look alike, sorry I prefer to behold a car that as character and why change it if it aint broke.

Ade,
Well,I think you may be right when you put it that way. It will be interesting to hear what people think of them in another 10yrs.
I must admit every once in a while I consider selling,but can't bring myself to do it.
The annoying thing is I'm really not sure why?
So,if in doubt, it's probably not a good idea!

Maybe I should have ordered beige with a barn door number plate
I ll pay the fine
Then again I drove this for 8 years with no number plate at all on the front & never got 1 comment

My seat needs restoring and is on my jobs to do list and has been for the last 15 years, it'll get done one of these days. Maybe once I have stopped ute upgrades.
