- 2011 VE Series II SV6
Hi all.
I've been lurking on this forum for a few weeks. Up till yesterday I was the (proud?) owner of a 2006 Subaru Liberty. No mods. Just dark tints.
The car was ok to own but really lacked backseat space and overall grunt. I've got three kids who seem to be growing longer and wider by the day and, with a baby seat in the middle, there's just no space left for anyone in the back seat to feel comfortable.
On a recent trip to Cairns, where we ended up hiring a Commodore VE Omega, we came away feeling quite surprised by the space the car offered. The sloppy ride, however, is a different story
I'm seriously considering a Commodore, but not sure which one. I want to buy something around the 2000 model year mark, so about 9 years old. Not keen on new cars.
I've briefly looked at VT's and VX's on sites like carsales.com.au. There are some very clean and well kept cars out there for sale. Just wondering what I need to be on the lookout for, as far as known issues with these two models.
I assume Commodore engines and transmissions are strong and durable? Should I be avoiding 200k+ kms cars?
Any tips and advice on how what to look out for in a VT/VX Commie is highly appreciated.
