Yours is automatic which would be $2,000 extra.Yes if you could add the paperwork for the accessories that would be good. Thanks again I was quoted $26,500 drive away for a manual CDX Silver Cruze.

Daewoo just had input on certain things whereas Opel designed and engineered most of the platform and the car. Holden did the testing on hot weather and all the seals and stuff. Daewoo just designed the outside and the production methods. No its actually the other way round.

I have had the car back at the dealers twice now for the same reason, it vears/pulls to the left. I allow for the camber on our roads but this little car wants to park itself. Today I took it back for the third time to the dealers for the same reason they said they will make about 5 adjustments to the suspension etc etc. Gave me a hire 2009 Holden Cruze CD Auto which does the exact thing , it wants to park itself. The funny thing is the first two time they had the car they said it was spot on. But today when I took it back they said a funny thing to me ( all the 2009 Holden Cruze's pull to the left ) Mind you the first and second time they did a wheel swap & alighned the front end but it still wants to park itself Has anyone got the same problem Is this an issue Holden have overlooked 4get using cruse control Got my wife the all new 2009 Holden Cruze CD Auto 3 weeks ago,I dont like it but she’s happy thats the main thing.

That's a big call considering there wouldn't be many with 60 k on the clock yet. Get a new mechanic. The car probably isn't all he jacked up ;) Your mechanic is a petrol sniffer.

Korean cars are moving ahead in leaps and bounds and the new cruze is just another example of a country that is set to dominate the auto world. In coming years we will be truly astounded by the progress of the Korean manufacturers. Meanwhile you will increasingly look uneducated. Congrats to Holden and Korea on a great little package. I may yet end up with one myself. The issue for me is that there are about to be so many great vehicles from Hyundai and KIA that it's a tough choice. Korean cars are second only to Lexus in the USA for customer satisfaction. It's just that some people (badge snobs and school kids) are lagging behind the educated.
