Will.... god man, chasing skirt already!!! and thoughts of selling the beast!!! - not sure liking this girl.. But you know that I don't really mean it...

Going to bring a Wog boy along, who is keen to check out the cars, cool bloke. (someone will have to give him a hoon in a car with those extra 2 cylinders).

Would like to have met for the social side but without my motor it would be just too much to bare, even thoughts of selling it now too.




NO, NO, NO surely not after all you've been through with it?

Just wait to you drive it again Will, I sometimes don't drive the HSV for a week or two & I am always impressed again when I get back in it.
Can't bring myself to sell mine, as I know that I would miss it too much. Tried loads of different cars as possible replacements & none of them are as much fun.
Just got a 2yr old 9-5 Aero estate to replace the 6yr old one. I'll clock up the miles in this, hoon about in the Smart for short journeys (although I did a 330 mile round trip in it recently!) & start to cherish the HSV a bit more.
Hope you get the HSV back soon. Would love to experience the new suspension some time.
Tom.

Yeah, you are right there Mike, this is the HSV FORUM after all!

Be funny in the next couple of years to see the 4-door rebadged by GM to Vauxhall and dormant production on the 2-door, Monaro boys won't like that for sure

How many do we think are going. I ask because I'm gonna get my M3 driving mate (some of you have met him) to go because he is seriously close to getting a Monaro, so the more he has to look at the better. (Anyone know if Caspy is going and what car he is bringing so he can take a look at some modded ones as well?)And...............if I turn up in the Noble exactly how far away have I got to park from you lot!! Please bear in mind I am a very loyal original ex-owner who if I can convince the wife she really does need a V8 to got to the shops,gym school run, may be returning to the fold
