It is quite happy returning 9L/100KM on the highway with an average of 12L/100KM around town. Strange my partners 1.8L Toyota Levin Corolla does an avera...

It could not of happened to nicer people... "Ello Ello Ello, whats all this then". traffic police, or should I say supplimental government taxation collection officers.

I am still trying to work out ADF policy in what a Beech Kingair offers over a DHC4. I am sure the r...

Mate, perhaps the best auto from GM that was ever installed in Holdens, the 2 speed Powerglide. I had one in a 1968 Holden Premier "Estate" (apparently that is what wagons are in Europe. With a Chev 5.7L V8 Did 75 MPH in low then you just clicked it into drive. Another mate had a HQ (1971) Holden...

The Factory Holden VY/VZ LS1 5.7 Litre has 225 KW at the Flywheel. (Bout 300 Horsepower) With the LS6 Heads, Cam, Tune and Exhaust My VY Berlina Wagon makes 235 KW at the rear wheels. The LS2 (6.0 L) introduced into the VZ series II had the HP increase. Mind you Top Gear is THE BEST Car show on t...
