    G'day

    Wondering if anyone can help me with a decision on my first car. Im a first year diesel fitter and trying to work out what is most balanced with, looks, power and fuel efficiency between

    2010 VE omega (ute or sedan) being 190 kw with 9.3l/per 100km
    2009 VE sv6 (ute or sedan) with 195 kw, 11.3l/per 100km?
    2005-2006 VZ ute or sedan with 175 kw, 12l/per 100km

    budget for car excluding mods $18,000

    the omega being base is pretty cheap and economic, but looks are a downside (if anyone has any ideas on how to make them look better)
    the sv6 looks good but is more pricey and less fuel efficient
    the VZ ute looks really good, cheaper then the sv6 but fuel efficiency is terrible.

    Any help would be good


    Thanks, Tim

    VZ with the 190 KW motor?

    and you could potentially get a nice VZ calais for that price.

    VE SSV Z-Series Ute
    Or then there is the svz ute which i think was available with 195kw and a/s but was only the later 07 models. But it comes down to what you want a ute or sedan

    yeah dude not 100% sure if i get a VE it will be a sedan (utes are out of the budget)
    but the vz series will no doubt be a ute
