HSV are back in the UK
Discussion
Welcome back to the UK from the HSV Drivers Club.......www.twg-ltd.com/hsvperformancecentre.html
HERE IS THE PRESS RELEASE......... www.hsvdriversclub.co.uk/twg/TWG06-03.pdf
I had a good chat with Ken Page who is in charge of the HSV Performance centre when I was at the official announcment at the Autosport show last Thursday.
He was very keen to meet the UK HSV owners so I have invited him to the "Ace" on Sunday.

Excellent.
I wonder if this has anything to do with the new "VE" model on its way, plus the current lack of a large Vauxhall RWD sedan as per the old Omega. Ive heard rumours of the Holden based platform replacing it!
I can see the V6 offered from Vauxhall and the performance models perhaps by this crowd and the VXR dealers... We will see.
No doubt you guys have all seen the new 6L L76 engine with LS7 style heads is due out next month? www.ls1.com.au/forum/showthread.php?t=49289

I did wonder if you could really be parted with an HSV for long, hope you are recovering Tom.
Certainly makes me think! I didn't really want to go down the buy another VX & put all my go-faster bits on it route, as the car would still be 5 years old & I wouldn't ever know its true history.
Anyway, I've accepted a great offer from N-U which didn't include the wreck! I'll post the details when it's all finalised.
I love the Monaro, but given a choice, would always have a 4dr HSV. People expect a coupe to be fast, but the 4dr has the "Q" appeal that has always made me love fast saloons.
I'm tempted to get a Discovery 3 which would be a great family car & would be used off-road, use the Saab Aero & Smart for business/commuting & maybe get a lightweight track car which the Disco could tow.
I also think using a really fast car on the public roads is getting tougher every year. I know that I've been very lucky with fast cars & maybe a break wouldn't be a bad idea.
Having had a crash were both vehicles were only doing 30mph & seeing the damage, makes you realise how bad things would be at much higher speeds.
Having said all that, the VZ R8 Clubsport "I just want one".
Edited to say, thanks for asking about me, I have to have weekly chiropractic treatment & sitting/driving, walking or standing for any longish period of time is painful, but I hope I can be repaired.

Paul do you know anymore 4dr info.?
There is no offical news on the "VE".........IF it does arrive expect delivery mid 2007, so might pay to get a R8 Clubsport from TWG.....
Paul, any idea when the cars from TWG will be available?
