My first ever Holden. VF SS Wagon. Loving the smooth engine and design. Except the rattles which I'm still having a battle with...

Other than that... No regrets!

VF Redline Sedan - A6 Spitfire MSE...
I'll try to remember them all, not in order of ownership:

HR Special (186S)
HK Kingswood 186 2spd powerglide
HQ SS (undercoat over purple)
HX Wagon (full GTS spec, V8, 4spd, black GTS dash, buckets / trim, LSD 3.08 ,GTS wheels) - Great car!
HX Kingy - worked 253, 3 on the tree
HQ Monaro coupe - white /black stripes worked 327 TH400
VB L 202
VH SL/E V8 - White, black stripes, dark blue velour interior
VP Exec - V6 Auto - my nephew still has it. >500k original drive line, going strong. CAI, exhaust and chip. Gives old school standard V8's a scare.
VT Acclaim
VY SS Red 6spd
VE S1 SV6 Man Black (short term work car)
VE S1 SV6 Man Blue (work)
VE S1.5 SIDI SV6 Sportwagon Poison Ivy (work) - Awesome car
VE SII SV6 Auto Voodoo (work)
VF Redline.
There were a couple of brief periods with a Torana in there and other Commy's came and went...All good cars.

Off topic but for interest, or not?:
VJ Dodge ute - Hemi 6. Bulk torque!
VJ Charger +500HP 360 4spd. Went like the clappers. My only regrets are selling this, the Monaro Coupe (which was technically my Dad's But I claimed it) and just missing out on a one owner E55 SE (340) Charger I had been eyeing off / chasing for about 20 years. It sold for $1k in 2001ish, hate to think what it is worth today after a tidy up.

Ford Territory Diesel - Good motor, **** of a car.
