I only just uploaded mine this morning!

Pretty obvious to any car nut, but for those who aren't into it, it is the Holden 5.0L EFI V8 used in Commodores from 1989 to 1999.

The actual picture is a scan of the 1989 magazine ad, and along the top & bottom I have photoshopped a "commodore' dash badge to read 'commodorenut'

Well done guys and gals. It's nice to see the forum being more and more personalised!!

Hey matt, you own a Holden too don't you? Looked to me like a Senator in your blog pics?

Don't go calling the Senator "a Holden"..... :shock:

ahem...

As my learned friend Vanderlay pointed out:

It not a Holden .... its a HSV!

(same same just goes faster and looks better!)

Prefer FORDS myself!!!!

I have no allegiance to any make.

I had an XY Fairmont GS 302 for my first car....

I miss the "armstrong" power steering and the "4and60" air conditioning.

It was a classic....

PhoenixStar · Oct 25, 2007 2:10 pm

Is there a lion on the badge or not? :wink:

Yes, it is assembled at HSV but hey as long as it's not a FORD.... i'm cool.

We're a holden family through & through.... Dad worked there, Hubby & i were in the industry....I couldn't consider the alternatives....

Michelle · Oct 25, 2007 2:14 pm

I drive a new Subaru!!!!

Love the power and safeness of its easy handling!!

(no….they didn’t tell me to say that) :wink:

I have two words for you....

VOLKS & WAGEN

commodorenut · Oct 25, 2007 2:34 pm

A HSV is still a holden.... HOLDEN Special Vehicles.....

The car is still assembled in Elizabeth SA by Holden, albeit minus a few extra goodies that get fitted over at Notting Hill (early HSVs) and then Clayton.

But to me, the really special Holdens were tweaked in a premesis in Port Melbourne - 35 Bertie Street to be exact, under the leadership of one Mr Brock.....(yes my real passion is Brock Commodores).

And no, I'm not being picky.... parked in my garage/driveway are a number of "Holden" commodores, wearing HSV and HDT build plates.

The work car is a different story! As the 'regulars' found out a few weeks back I admitted that I had an XR6 Falcon (which I quite liked) as a company car, before it was rudely destroyed by someone with no respect for road rules.

At this stage it looks like it will be replaced by a Subaru Liberty (Global "green approach" from our parent company).

Yes Ash…..hopefully will get to see that tonight for you!!
