As referance to the Monaro, a mate of mine/my dads had a Holden HSV (which is the same car) and he had one of the only two in the country as the time (was a while ago now). Was quick but he averaged 8MPG daily.

monaro's losing money your crazy mate lol they well hold there value,and i suppose its your opinion that they are sh!t but i think most people on here would disagree,and its a good talent you both have it could make you alot of cash only if your cheap enough

I think its obvious to see I'm not a big fan of big cars like this (really I'm not, never liked the Lotus Carlton either)

its each to their own as you say, would be a boring world if we all liked the same eh

I have a Swift GTI twin Cam 16v, forged crank and pistons, HKS cams, Superchips custom mapping etc etc, 154BHP and revs to 9k. all this from a 1.3.. absolutely insane car. beat so much stuff you would not believe.. smoked my mates MK2 Golf GTI which had a 2.9VR6 in it.. i got instant respect after that (they used to laugh at the 1.3 part hahaha.. 

this is what they can do with a Turbo

Hmm fair point.

This wasn't a Vaxhaull, was a Monaro. No idea if that or import costs make a difference....
