Matt's ZB RS-V wagon long term review

[Anthony121]

Demo model RSV's with a few to 10 thousand Kms on them can be had for low to mid 30's already. Still with 4+ years warranty. That's nearly 20 grand below RRP. That's a heap of depreciation already taken out of the equation for the buyer. Only negative is the demo part. Could have been treated poorly.

Most of them are probably ex lease GM cars and been driven by one person so a good buy.

ZB's are still arriving off the ships too.

The vehicles coming off the ships are probably the same vehicles they have had stockpiled since they first stopped the boats so would expect them to be 2018.

So I guess those cars would have build date 2018 presumably later half of 2018, but compliance plate could well be 2019 if the compliance plate is fitted here.

Not sure how that works.

Not stockpiled. New build vehicles this year.

Production was halted in October. I haven't read or seen anything that says otherwise. Where did you get the info about them starting up again?
The ones they're selling now would be pre October 2018 build and are from either the stockpile sitting here or the one overseas.

They are this years builds

How do you know?

Its a good question. There has been nothing in the media about 2019 build commodores. There is no advertising for zb commodore. The two dealers nearest to me Southport and Beaudesert don't even have Zb commodores on their lot.
But if you have accurate information that 2019 build zb,s have come in we would love to hear it.
