Autonomous emergency braking will be compulsory in Australia from Thu 11 Nov. Review Ineos Grenadier ride-along review Fri 12 Nov. Sat 13 Nov. Hey a VE Berlina is a nice reliable and respectable car to drive and it sounds like reasonable value for money. At the end of the day the price is relavent to the kilometers. If your not going to sell it anytime soon, then buy it and drive it into the ground.
With regular servicing etc it will be fine. We had a few 6cyl commodores over the years and certainly got driven into the ground with over ,kms on them.
They had the odd thing like coil packs and harmonic dampners but other than that it was trouble free motoring. Take it or leave it. I have anyway. Hope this helps. I can't believe some of the 'High K' Drivel on this forum at times! I mean V8's not doing ,K etc It's what they are built for.
There are 2 schools of thought, and I subscribe to both: 1. If you want one cheap, it's in good nick, the price is right and you DON'T care about resale, buy something with high K's but not stupid 2.
If you are willing to spnd more, keep it, love it, and wanna keep the K down, buy a low K one. This is my opinion only, but It has a little timing chain rattle, but is in absolutely Schmick condition. Put 4K on it in 2 weeks. I put it on LPG. Questions remain about depreciation. There is demand for the Aussie-built Commodore sedan, wagon and ute, depending on the engine and model grade. The last VF Commodores rolled off the Elizabeth production line in October , so the last examples are a few years old now.
Check car sales websites for current prices and expected depreciation. Holden has a contract to compete in the Australian Supercars Championship, but its future beyond this year is unclear. Holden executives say they will sit down for discussions with the Supercars organisers in the coming days. The death of the Holden brand would make it very difficult to compete beyond given there will be no retail presence.
Whether GM chooses to be involved with the series through its specialty vehicle business remains to be seen. While they are yet to announce plans, they are likely to include Holden Special Vehicles HSV which currently converts left-hand-drive North American models such as the Chevrolet Camaro coupe and the Chevrolet Silverado full-size pick-up to right-hand-drive at its Clayton facility.
Following the closure of its Australian manufacturing operations in Port Melbourne and Elizabeth in South Australia in October , Holden has had double-digit sales declines across its model range. Holden discontinued the Commodore, as well as the European-sourced Astra hatch, late last year after continued sales declines. The Australian automotive market is widely regarded as the most competitive market in the world, with about 64 brands competing for a relatively small pool of just over one million sales a year.
This competitiveness hit Holden harder than many other brands, such as rising Korean car-makers Hyundai and Kia. Others blame a lack of foresight by previous management at both Holden and GM, including a delay in transitioning from passenger cars into SUVs and rebadging vehicles imported from GM Korea as Daewoos. The release of questionable models such as Captiva and Malibu also dented the brand perception.
The shift to electrification and the advent of autonomous driving technologies requires significant investment — as all global car manufacturers are currently discovering — and it was an investment GM was unable to realise for Holden. We chased down every conceivable strategy, we looked under every rock.
Holden has about employees in Australia and New Zealand and just under will be without a job by mid-year. Most employees are based in Melbourne.
