People bag and bag Holdens out like no tomorrow. I agree that there are alot of bogans and reckless p platers out there with big “unit” stickers on the back window but we arent all like that.

Sole reason I bought a VY Commodore wagon is because it is HUGE! I am a tradie. Parts are cheap and plentiful, and yet everyone tried to talk me out of buying one saying they are so unreliable and etc etc.

Guess what. Had mine a year and never had an issue. Ok it has annoying things with it, but where can you buy a car this big for the money?

People support home grown.

Lastly, someone should shoot the BF Falcon wagon desginer. I would have bought one if it werent so damn nasty looking!

test drove ss liked it bought it, look guys isnt buying a car up to 1, personal taste 2, need 3,finance , we wanted a larger car that had performance and had a muscle car look i am not a rev head as this is my first v8 but for a car that has this much room and when you drive into a corner you dont feel it is going to roll over its a gem , also its aussie made so im supporting australian workers it also was 40k drive away

I see Wayne’s point – up to a point. Perhaps its a bit of familiarity breeds contempt.

While Wayne implies there are some bloody good Aussie cars that don’t get full credit, he misses the fact that there are also some bloody good Aussie motoring writers who don’t get full credit. Generally speaking, generalisations suck!

I am getting a bit pissed off at how Australian motoring writers are constantly bagging the aussie product, the references in this article about “no Australian car is ever perfect” How many cars of any make are perfect and at what price??
Oz manufacturers have a far smaller market in which to recoup the development costs for the cars they produce and I believe the value and quality of the local product is excellent. If anyone can show me a car produced in a market this small that is better I’d like to see it!!!
Come on guys how about talking the locals up instead of bagging them. The public is starting to believe your rubbish and are shying away from the locals. Be Aussie and be proud of it !!!
