Its stopped raining, I must go wash and polish my pride and joy.

Yes personal attacks should be delt with no matter who it is they are always wrong. I think half of Aus is on FF It's always buzzing.

I drive an XR6T and I haven't noticed any of these things. Holden must have a contract with drive.com.au (and friends) so they'll bag the Falcon. Its quite sad, and its not journalism.

LOL Go back in 2002 and the same was said about the VY. Dash reflections in the window seats to hard can't see the dials with the sun glare steering is all over the road.

They concluded that the VE only that hits the mark in the SS and SSV, and the 6 cylinder models fall way short of where they should be. Even went as far as to say the Alloytec sounds and feels like an XF taxi when revved.

But many could say that the only reason you see it fare is because they went against all but the 2 V8's. So basically more then half the range.
And my opinion is Go-Auto done the best review, As they got the cars last and only just finished up doing there testing, There were plenty of ups and downs but across the board it's was rated pretty good.


Does anyone remember the R8 that was pulled from bang for buck because they couldn't find replacement tyres? Or the GTS that sprung a hose?
