is everyone seeing lots of VEs? i have seen 3 today. one had trade plates but the other two were miles from any dealer so they werent on a test drive. one was in a car park!! how did these people get one so fast it isnt fair
if you want digi pics i'll walk down the end of the street where one is parked....hang on
if you walk into a dealership with the right amount of cash anything can happenOriginally Posted by daveb8
y the hell is that fuse box so big for??? no wonder why the battery is in the boot
ok here they are.... car is fleet provided. good time to have a fleet car rotated. if it was a few weeks ago that person would have gotten a vz and thats a big difference. lucky lucky bastard
good point. have they merged the one under the bonnet with the one what was under the steering wheel vt-vz?Originally Posted by naf33n
Cheers man , i think plastic wheel covers should be a thing of the past thoughOriginally Posted by daveb8

yeah that would be nice but alloys are more expensive and if holden increased the price of the base model even more people would switch to cheaper/smaller carsOriginally Posted by INSAYN
Interesting to see, from those latest pics, the Omega parked next to a BMW... Check out the similarities! Still, IMHO the Holden looks MORE STYLISH!!! MORE CLASSY!!! And it's only the Omega... Similar price would see a Calais V REALLY outshine that poor lil BimmerGREAT STUFF HOLDEN!
On the steel wheel / wheel cover comment. Agree but cost for fleet buyers etc etc... At least they're 16s...
I think you'll find a lot of fleet managers have extended VZ's past their normal rotation period - waiting for the VEs. I know first hand this is the case with many as I talk to so many fleet customers at work who've had their VZs longer than normal.
i saw my 1st ve left out in the rain 2nite![]()

HA HA HA I've driven VE
BTW, it FU.CKING ROCKS!!!
I saw my first VE Omega when I was walking back to work from lunch yesterday. It was that Gold colour. The driver looked like a business man and must have been a work car. He was driving pretty fast around the corner I was waiting to cross the road. I was looking at it approaching thinking to myself... What sort of car is this and then I realised it was a VE. I was that excited I told everyone at work I saw a VE. Atlot of people at my work love Holdens and its started a all afternoon conversation about Holden and the VE range. Off to test drive a VE Calais V this weekend, might have to trade my VZ Calais for one if I like it....![]()
