I think the ZB is getting hammered because Holden made the silly decision to call it a Commodore. If it was called an Insignia then the haters would just be angry about the end of the commodore instead of having the ZB to direct all the hate at.
If it was called an Insignia it would be judged on it's own merits (Which has been mostly positive reviews) instead of being compared to 40 years of Aussie built Commodores.
How many insignias did they sell last time? People hate em cause they are just more of the cruze/craptiva/ daywoo junk. Not to mention holdens stuff you customer service

What a load of “BS”.And of course you have evidence to the contrary that the Insignia is junk?Another “armchair” expert.Make sure you have all your evidence to quote.

Comparing German manufacture, even Opel quality, to the lower grade Daewoos' quality, is typical of the pig ignorance that this forum has become infested with over recent years. There used to be a majority of intelligent contributions and a small percentage of stupidity just to keep us entertained. Unfortunately, since the death of local manufacture, ignorance predominates.

Funny thing.....What ever brand you own, they seem to all complain about their particular brand customer service being junk....Very very rarely does someone post up good customer service from their dealership, when they get it.....So your post is rubbish once again.....

I'd suggest you put into your tuckerbag, carrots....Might help your sight

Yep 1000s of clueless wankers that bag out products without giving them a chance


Sales numbers say all that we need to know.

Seen a few around my way, mostly cop cars.

If I was to want a car based purely on technology and gadgets there are plenty out there that do it as well if not better than Holden but I've never bought Commodores for the bells and whistles...

The biggest fail of the new Commodore is not the car, it's the fact that Holden are trying to trade on the good name of the Commodore. I'm 100% sure it would have sold better had they retired the Commodore brand and used a different name.

It’s a shame really, Holden probably has its best line up of cars in a long time (commodore,Acadia,Astra and Colorado) but people hell bent on trashing the name purely on the fact they don’t make a shitty car in Australia anymore.
Yup.Should have “buried” the VF years ago.So old school.Trouble is you cannot convince the “ bogans” that,has to have a thumping V8 & RWD.Cheers:):)(watch them come out of the “woodwork” now & defend it.)

Maybe you haven't taken much notice but the majority of the membership of this forum and clearly going the sales numbers most Aussies would agree with us about the new Opeldore.

And please don't bother reporting members and try to have them banned because you don't like their opinion!

And hopefully you rot with it, because you haven't said a nice word about the brand that I have seen...

Oh and I'm not one eyed either....I have 2 other brands of cars, besides a Holden.....And I'd love you to find a post where I have rubbished any brand of car
