Passion is something which runs deep with Australian Ford and Holden fans, and it’s amazing to see just how much the most fanatical among us will spend. There’s a huge back catalog for each to choose from, spanning six decades, but we have a rare gem indeed today. The HSV […]
Holden Commodore SS
Video: 2000 Holden VT Commodore SS Series II 0-100km/h & engine sound
When Holden launched the Series II VT Commodore back in 1999, Aussie car fans went nuts (including us). We all couldn’t believe Holden had shoehorned in the legendary 5.7-litre Chevrolet V8 from America. A genuine 350 Chev in a factory family sedan. In SS trim, as we have here, the […]

2016 Holden VF Commodore Series II to debut September 13
Holden will apparently unveil the 2016 VF Commodore Series II on September 13, which will be the last Commodore model ever made in Australia. It’s certainly sad times for Australian car fans. We all knew it was coming, but now it seems it has almost arrived at that time. The […]
