Is this some new kind of Holden? ha ha

[Tempy]

I just went out for a meal with Doris and saw this bad boy in the car park



A Holden Astra. Bit of a strange thing to do and the badge size he or she has chosen is huge (and not on straight). I had to get Doris to take a picture.

Turbo aswell, mmmmmmmm.

Oh I do so hope all the astra and corsa boi's start to holdenize their rides. That would really make me laugh

No more funny than doing it to to any other car supplied with Vauxhall badges.

But NO its a Vauxhall. Quick those that have rebadged you can make a fortune by sending them over to Oz to let them rebrand to what the car should be

They have also been doing the Vectra for a while. But this is also all kinds of wrong (old post) http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

i feel shamed now, i did one time long long ago in a time similar to this bit far far removed lol rebadged my cav turbo with holden badges. i am ver very very sorry but at least i seen the light and went and bought one

This is the same as those people who are sticking Audi "S4" or "RS" badges onto their boggo A4s or (even more laughable) Golfs.

I don't think it will devalue the Holden brand in anyway, certainly not to those of us who have rebadged their cars to correctly identify the factory of origin.

Vauxhall told me that the previous owner of my car had stuck Type-R badges under the side repeaters. It was removing those that had damaged my paint work (log story getting those repaired).

I thought, nah, a Monaro owner wouldn't do that, Type-R doesn't make sense but I called the previous owner and he said yes he had lol.

People are strange.

Whatever next? Eco badges on a big V8?
