Well i am glad that was your opinion.Mine is that from the vn through to the current models have an an ugly lumbering body shape, the ef/el models outsold anything holden could think of to throw at ford, oh wait a minute while holden were still keeping the same body shape overall ford was changing every panel from the EA onwards.

I am still amazed why you holden guys dont go and peddle your nonsense on a HOLDEN site where the other holden guys can believe you.

Well I used to own a manual VR Clubby a few years back and even though I liked the overall look of the car, there were things in the design department that ИИИИed me off.

The A-pillar is way to skinny to flow with the rest of the car.
The bloody indicator doesn't line up with the gap between the bonnet and the front fender. Plus it looks like it's not even made to fit.


The C-pillar looks funny, perhaps because of the big window and that little extra bit of plastic that joins it up to the rear 3/4 panel.
I also hate that bit under the taillight, surely everything could've been manufactured in 1 piece.


The interior wasn't too bad, being an HSV but was quite tacky in some areas.
Somehow the the sound of the 5L and the manual box made up for this all though. :
