The Ford BA XR6 was a better car than the ZB

I'm sorry @stooge did you just leave your transmission behind as you drove off?

Torana's had Opel underpinnings too, but nothing like the ZB, meh.

imagine if they had called the zb a torana, that would have went down well LOL
i made a torana badge for my zb to trigger people but i never got around to putting it on.

Did the quick Insignias (turbo 4x4 V6s) ever make it to Aus? They were supposed to be ok compared to the rest of the range which over here was considered dull and bland.

Yes I know that, but Holden scratched their heads and took out the motors. Looked around and found some thing better. Vauxhall Vivas/Torana. I’d buy a Torana over a Viva. We had a Viva, actually Two. Engines were shite.

We made those things into far better cars.

What at least should have been a stand in Commodore was the Cadillac

I drove 2 months and 100000miles around the UK and counted maybe 15 Insignias. Their drivers looking dull and sad.
