2010 SV6 VE SIDI
I've been trying to choose what would be the best car for me, I'm a 1st year Diesel Fitter appretice and i have a 2003 VY Commodore Acclaim.

At the moment im in between 3 options

1) Keep my 2003 Acclaim and add some modifications to it such as, new twin exhaust system, extractors, new front and rear rotors, new brake calipers, new springs and struts, some body work (spoiler, hood, skirts), paint job (it's red atm and I'm sick of the colour), update the audio system, and maybe look into getting a turbo kit fitted.

2) SV6 Ute - since I've started my apprenticeship I've felt like I've needed a car with a tray for the extra room for my tool boxes and work stuff. A SV6 ute would have a tray for my tool boxes and also have the good looks of a nice ride, depending if i went for new or used i could also do some mods to the ute.

3) Colorado TD 4x4 single cab - is another option I've been thing of, it would have the space with the tray for my work stuff and with a 4x4 i could rough it around abit and not worry to much about the looks, I'm not sure wat mods you can make to a 4x4 ?



advice would be great because This is all I've thing about lately

pros and cons for each car ?

Whats the difference between the Thunder and the sv6 ute ?

i Havn't really noticed the difference

nothing much, just some small things.
but in my opinion it looks much better, more evil etc.
