here's one for ya, Tell the world what you think is the best model and the worst model Holden ever created and why ?
The fact is that the Hk Monaro is the best Holden ever made simply for it's supurb looks, whilst the VN Commodore gets my worst vote for being a heap of ****!

i think the VN SS is the best, so muscular, fast, and it could handle.
The captiva is the worst. 1 word Daewoo.

Worst - probably the 4cyl VC/VH as a car. For looks, probably the VN/VP.
Best - As an overall car, the A9X despite the fact that a Torana is a piece of crap build wise compared to my favourite for looks - HK GTS327.
My favourite if I could build it |

What about the diesel Gemini for the worst? I think that was someone at holden playing a joke that noone else got. As for the best The FX/FJ wins on looks alone. The way the guards flare out from the body, they look like a woman with a big arse and big bo

Vl Calais probably the best as it looked different to its commodore siblings and had that oh so smooth and surprisingly grunty little 3 litre engine in base form and it just got better when you optioned up to the more powerful engines.

Not Sunbird, but 4cyl LH/LX Torana. Subtle but important difference. Remember that most (if not all) Sunbirds (especially UCs) had RTS and handled beautifully. The car was much too good for the engine. Unlike a VC-VH Commodore where itd be arguable if the |
