After driving it around for a band gig this afternoon, it is unique amongst the other vehicles I have owned, for its incredible lack of distinctive personality.
I don't want to say it is boring, because it is this very trait that makes it, in content, some what interesting.
This thing has travelled 200,000km, (is the ecotec V6, last of the Buick's) and is probably the last VY on earth, that hasn't been lowered, or with a Chev badges attached.
My sample may be broken because of my profession I confess, but how someone drove one and then went, oh I want the sporty model, seems insane to me. It's perfect in how it's mundane. It's a librarian, and not an overly good one, just a run of the mill clerical worker whom has been there to long but not yet long enough to be destructive.
They feel huge inside. My partner is a km away and even with seat forward I doubt she could reach the front fire wall.
Having said that, this thing is returning better economy then the Volvo ever has. I'm looking like I may crack under 10L/100km's And the best bit? Supercheap auto is now a performance store :hehe: Imagine walking into a store and indicating you need a bushing out of the blah blah blah and store clerk returns with, "they are actually on special this week.."
My example is in a pretty straight condition, own'd by a mates auntie was was given a company car. She was going to send it to the tip because it needed rego.
It needs an ABS sensor, the front seat is well sat in, a bunch of old e-tag holders removed from the windscreen, the Ariel correct to the correct shape of Australia, and some heater-hoses are starting to swell ($70 kit from aforementioned performance store)
Allow me to introduce you to Graham.
Oh why here, I'm going to de-modify modify this things. It's going to be the most boring Graham ever.
