    Talking Ive just got a Holden Rodeo V6.

    Hi All
    Just thought id tell you all about my new ute.
    I know its not a Commodore ute, But it is a Holden, and its just as good. Ive just bought a 1999 Holden Rodeo V6 single cab ute. It is a 5 speed manual, 3.2 litre DOHC V6, has air conditioning, power steer, full cloth/velour trim, Alpine CD, alloy wheels, alloy tray, 104,000kms, light metallic green in colour, and its in excellent condition. and very nice to drive. I payed $12,750 for it, which is an excellent deal at that price.

    First Ute Ive ever owned.

    Ill post up some pics in a couple of days.

    are you obsessed with trolley collecting as well as matchbox cars?

    but then again you dont drive so you need somthing with wheels.

    Im very happy with it. The previous owner looked after it very well. He told me the seats have never been sat on without a seatcover, and he always had floormats, and kept it washed and polished frequently. and always had it serviced every 10,000 kms.
    As for mods, I think ill keep it original, its just too good to spoil. although I might get a hi flow panel air filter, and cold air, if it can be done. I dont know if there are any performance items availible for a Rodeo V6. Ill polish up the tray too.

    Also I found all these option codes, but I dont know for sure what they mean, I figured out a couple. can anynone help, or steer me in the right direction?

    Body Colour - 751 Seascape Aqua (Thanks Commodore )
    Trim - 160 - ?
    C41,? EQ9,? FG 3,? S3B,? 6UX,? 6WN.?
    FE2 - This means "sports suspension" on Commodores, is it the same for Rodeo's?

    Thanks to everyone who replied.
