    Gotta love the old Holden wagons. These things were so underrated. Gotta love the v8 and manual. The VT, VY, VZ wagons were the best, absolutely massive boot space and so practical. Sad people didn’t believe in our Aussie cars. These old wagons are so much more practical then SUVs

    Ive got a ve ssv wagon myself with a manual l98 in it. Big cam, 4:11s, exhaust, clutch etc. Definitely a comfortable cruiser and sounds good. Certainly underrated with cosmetics aswell as wheels and coilovers make these things. Another great review ross even if i am a little biased haha!

    I purchased a 2012.5 Redline Sportwagon Automatic back in 2017.
    I purchased this because 80% of my driving is highway driving in Victoria. On the highway they get about 5-8L/100. Lots of torque to overcome wind resistance.
    It's been a really good highway cruiser at 190,000 kms and it's only had a few small issues. Radiator plastics deteriorated, 1 injector failed. But for nearly 200,000 kms those repairs are cheap motoring.
    At this age the interior is starting to show it's age as the materials GM used are pretty low quality. But body, paint and mechanically these are about as good as it gets.

    My partner has a VF II SV6 Wagon. I started dating her after she bought the car so had no say in car choice, but disappointed it was the V6 engine. I think alot of people fear high fuel bills when they hear the word 'V8' and also feel it's too excessive for their needs.
    I was getting it serviced the other day and the service place was telling me the LS engines are more reliable (none of the GM 3.6 timing chain malarky), have better resale, and shockingly, better on fuel too. Still, the wagons are practical and drive nicely. It's a shame that car companies seem to be ditching them.

      Biggest issue with Ford was the wagon they had to work with. The B series wagon was a long, narrow load hauler. With the VE, the sedan and wagon are the same underneath, just with the different rear end on them. So they could truly give a go at doing performance wagons as it was the same as the sedan. Ford couldn't do that.

      @@MartinJones123 3.0 not much just intake and exhaust and a throttle controller I think the 3.0 are pretty underated Considine they will rev to 8000rpm all day long and the platform was originally developed for boost IV got a mate with one with a side mount supercharger and it dyno at 230rwkw on low boost not even intercooled like I know the 3.6 LFX is a more powerful how ever the 3.0 is great in fuel on highway cruising IV had mine down 7.3L per 100km so I just think it's pretty cool I can get that kind of fuel economy and still do 0-100 in under 7 secs

    So basically..... Get the R8 and it be perfect lol. Problem with the R8 it looks a bit over the top. Great thing about this SS it's a bit more classy. I want one but not sure if to save that extra 20 - 30k more and just get a higher k R8 touring. Hmmmmm... decisions.

      Was it Tony Abbott's fault that Holden sales declined year after year, that the ZB Commodore was a disaster, that GM had decided to stop RHD vehicle production world wide, that many of their models were cheap garbage, etc?
