Monaro CV8, 5.7 LS1. The brakes are rubbish for the power, but good to see it has the AP's upgrade. I wouldn't wana be behind it too close if it breaks sharp :-[

A lot car for your ££££ :) :y

Me love it long time. Yes they give me a feeling in the trouser region which I rarely get these days  ;D

I actually get quite annoyed by the owner of a certain red in Bishopstoke near Eastleigh in Hampshire. It allmost seems to be abandoned, it half on the road half on the pavement on quite a busy road for traffic and pedestrians. So I would imagine it gets shopping bags scraped along it and possibly its door mirror broken off occasionally. Seems such a waste.  :(

That's a real shame as there's just a hand full left now.....CV8 Models imported to the UK by VX was only 142 in 2005.

That's what you get for being a whippersnapper  ;D
Just done a quote for the missus & myself on the ebay Monaro and it came out at £545.93 for fully comp cover, although the field for vehicle valuation was automatically filled in at £7600.
All we have to work out now is which child to sell so we can afford tyres & petrol  ;D

No offence intended, but means there is green light ahead for V8 power. Guess it must drop quite a bit 30+
