    Designed here in Melbourne by Holden. Notice the skyline?.

    This car should replace the astra. In fact, It has some astra about it.

    What could be better, you get pulled over for doing a skid, the police offer a free adjustment, a couple of good whacks later, the reception is far clearer then ever before.

    That's more like what they need in a small car to compete, it's pretty much a cut and paste of all the current popular small cars but if that's what you need to do then it's all good

    I certainly prefer it to the current Barina or the Spark. I reckon it would sell up a storm out here. Cars of that size are very popular and the Euro look gets away from the Jap and Korean appearance nicely.

    interior looks really quite nice, overall it has an aggressive look to it.. Yeah fingers crossed Holden open their eyes and grab it. That's if the management have the brain capacity to do something good for the company lol.

    Doesn't it say this car is coming?. Why would holden design it only to overlook it?. and anyway i'm sure they made adjustments on computer for their own front end when designing this.

    Very similar interior to the Cruze! The steering wheel, stereo controls and seats are identical.

    Nice little car. GM is finally starting to make some nice small cars.
