Late last night I saw one of these parked in South Yarra VIC with “LEFT HAND DRIVE” and something like “ENGINEERING EVALUATION VEHICLE” on the rear bumper. Stopped and had a good gawk but couldn’t really see much inside due to poor lighting. It had a Chevy badge (unmasked) on the front grille as pictured here but had a couple of unusual cut-outs on the corners of the front bumper. Seemed pretty standard otherwise. It was registered as a 2005 Daewoo.

Also known as the Vauhall Antara here in the motherlands my colonial friends. We had this sometime after
Holden released it in Australia due to quality problems.
THe Chevrolet has a 7 seat version whereas the Vauxhall does not. THe Vauxhall has a better finish than the Chev as well. I’m assuming theHolden is really the Chevrolet here. i.e.a cheaper version.

Has the dashboard and instruments had a minor freshen up?

“The Chevrolet Captiva, or also known as the Holden Captiva and Daewoo Winstorm, makes its appearance at the 2008 London Motorshow”

There, I fixed it for you. The Captiva is not better known as a Holden Captiva because I am sure they sell far more in Europe, Africa and the Middle East as Chevrolet Captiva.

I think a nod should be given to the Daewoo product name, Chevrolet Sh*tstorm has some alliteration and fits much better :)
