S3X confirmed as Captiva

[Blitz_]

I think they realised, as a mums car, going shopping and to pick up the tots at school, having the kiddies say "mum's coming to pick me up in the sex" would be a little, hmm, weird..

[Blue Supra]

thatd be hilarious!

[thatdbeme]

pure australian made?? ..from Holden, ahhhh thats funny shit

vectra to be replaced by the Torana? don't give up your day job, i dont really see that happening anytime soon - BUT the vectra, from last reads, hasn't been selling that good, perhaps a new model and badge to re-vitalise Holdens share in that segment??

the vectra is being replaced by something from daewoo
i cant imagine that being good

[Blue Supra]

[SlickHolden]

You guys know how we hired the Territory for Bathurst last year and loved it, And after that my brother wanted one so bad he bought the BA Fairmont so he could have a better trade in and a better chance at getting more on finance to get one.
Anyway he has been chatting with plenty of people about them. There was his brother-inlaw who just got one the last BA Ghia AWD. He tells me it's been back twice already for recalls? What recalls? Another guy he spoke to said the same thing, 5 people he spoke to told him of these problems also. He is almost scared off it now. And I'm still like what recalls?
Yesterday i went to the tyre place to have my tyre repaired it had a nail in the sucker had to get it removed and plugged up. Anyway there was a Black TX Territory RWD there, It's left rear wheel was fully Bald. They removed the front left and stuck it on the rear and replaced the rear new and stuck it on the front.
Has anyone ever herd of this tyre wear before?

Woops on topic now i like sex more then Captiva

You might argue the more the manufacturers increase their quality control, the more faults they find. Other than that i havent heard anything about recalls, but being IRS and succeptible to heavy loads, tyre wear would be understandable

NOBODY WANTS A KOREAN HOLDEN!

why doesn't Holden realise this?!

Holden has no say. GM owns Daewoo for the reason of producing cheap cars. That’s what GM buyers will get more and more of. Enlightened ones won’t touch this crap. In any case there is no reason to buy things like this. Appallingly (admirably?) Nissan has come clean with the new Murano ads stating they are 4 wheel drives not to take off road. Like this is a good thing!?

[SlickHolden]

And Holden owns Daewoo in Australasia now is it? So they have to sell some of there cars also plus work with them to hopefully improve there image and quality.

[fpv_gtho]

Well GM still owns them but Holden has been given majority control. I dont know why theyre making out Holden "bought" into Daewoo, GM should have better ways of making money than selling their divisions around the company

like selling quality cars!

wait..

gm doesnt make any

[fpv_gtho]

I think theyre hoping on their "low cost world car developed down under that was abandoned locally half way through development leaving Holden to fend for themselves".....to do that...

And some people wonder why i doubt the VE...

So Holden paid the money to GM yeah? Keep it in the family

Hey Bluey your right aobut GM and cars

The Vectra is being replaced by the daewoo magnus...

Vectra to be replaced by the Torana? don't give up your day job, i dont really see that happening anytime soon - BUT the vectra, from last reads, hasn't been selling that good, perhaps a new model and badge to re-vitalise Holdens share in that segment??

It was looked into and when they added it up, it would cost as much as a commodore to produce....so i dont imagine a torana-esque car anytime soon...

Seen this used-buyer Falcon/Territory review? Obviously not too in-depth so I doubt if it deserves a separate post but in any case it does seem quite positive

The Vectra is being replaced by the daewoo magnus...

The Daewoo Magnus!! *shivers* that car is ugly, the Vectra is a much nicer car i reckon. My dad bought one of the late 2005 models to replace his VK SL dam i miss that car *stands up and salutes*.

The S3X looks great nice interior to, i hope the Captiva is as good.
