Ute spotted with photo

[merge]

M11 , 12ish out towards the M25, saw it in a queue a couple of cars ahead, had to risk my licence to get my passanger close enough to get the picce as this one was picking it's way down the fast lane with some gusto, my vito was flat out to get anywhere close and lucky he pulled off at a junction allowing us to get a shot.



also saw a silver nostrilled monaro that morning down the country lanes on my way to work, near buckingham, 730 ish . and yes I waved don't know why , neither did the driver i think!!

Nice one white van man lives!! The ute is a Crewman by the looks, heard of a couple comming into the contry this must be one of them.

HSV version is called "Avalanche" and comes with AWD

Problem is the back seats are more upright than the sedan, small problem really.

I would prefer to buy a HSV Grange and drive around with the boot lid off and claim it as a work vehicle.

I've got a base model Crewman at the moment (while I wait for my SS Commodore to turn up) and it is not up to much. Back seats are useless, the bed is too short (I can fit longer loads in my Ford Falcon if I fold the seats down), the turning circle is enormous, and the ride is pretty poor thanks to the cart sprung rear end. An estate would be more practical.

Plus it is white, has a manual box and steel wheels. Mind you, it is pretty quick.
