nevery buying one again

[evil_monkey]

Well that’s it, **** Holden they are ****ing pieces of ****,

i used to love these things, why ? **** knows I must be brain damaged I’ve had 7 in the past 4 years, all low mileage all late model, the newer I go the more trouble I have.

My current has given me trouble since we bought it in December last year, spent $$$$$$$$$$$$ on the front end to get this clunking problem fixed, had it diagnosed at pedders and still same problem.

so cya bitches once/if i can sort this problem I’m going to get rid of it and never again will i own anything that has even a vague resemblance to a Holden id be better of with a ****ing push bike

Buy a BA, they're tonnes better than the VY.

Drive one if you don't believe me.

hahahahahahhaha. I have spent around $400 on my car including a full service and a new crank angle sensor in 12 months.... And its 20 years old

[evil_monkey]

ive had, vn, 2 vs's, vt, vx, 2 vy's.

ive driven an ef falcon once it seemed similar to the vt but i think im gonna go for trusty old toyota next 100 series cruiser or a new dual cab hilux

Any Commodore after a VX is gay anyway. Early model Commo's FTW!

my vn was the most reliable i had it for 2 years in that time blew a thermostat in it

was a 5spd aswell so went pretty good too

That doesn't surprise me either dude, VN - VP Buicks. Less crap on the car ='s less crap to go wrong. Go and buy a 5 litre VN or VP

holdens and fords are ****house, but there cheap. if you want something good then spend the money

Nah go buy the 100 series, bloody beautiful car to ride in, so comfortable plenty of room, handles nicely on the road, and an excellent performer off road, would easily be the best off road wagon. Only new 4wd id rather have over the 100 series and thats the 78/9 series. Wish i could afford a nice 4wd

Dont go to pedders to look at your suspension, they dont have a clue.

There should be someone there that knows what they're doing. If you were in Melb I could have given you a contact.

Buy a Ford and spend heaps replacing the alloy head - every 6 months

[VZTHUNDER]

ever think you maybe got a lemon??
my grandparents used to own a VN commo that had easy over 700,000km on it with the orig motor and box (they were all country k's tho) and it was going well when they sold it

my old man has had 3 ss's (vt,vy,vz) never had a problem with any of them

then theres my VX which has been in my family for 5 years... again not a problem

then theres my mums new VE commo sv6 that is yet to have a problem

im thinkin you got a lemon

You seem to go through cars too quickly... 7 cars in 4 years is alot !!! I take it for granted used cars will have some problems that'll need sorting out no matter what brand and I try to suss all the faults out before parting with cash for them. But yeah as cars get more complex they're more likely to play up... The most reliable Holden I've owned was a one owner VK 304...with 80,000km... I thrashed the daylights out of it for 5 years and only ever needed to buy a battery for it. I usually hang on to a car for at least 5 years so I get the value out of doing any repairs to them. If I was buying a family car between 1998-2006 I'd look at a Ford first... the independent suspension on the sedans was far superior.
