I've never been biased really but for some reasons Ive bought more holdens than fords.

had 2 VU SS Utes, 1 LH SL/R, 1 VR Calais, 1 HJ 1-Tonner(with stato cab), Last car was a Nissan Cefiro import(which I still have but in bits). I'm not exactly old(I'm 23) either just change my taste every so often. Never had a qualm with the holdens but I like the potential behind the XR6T and so far I am very happy with my purchase.

I used to own a VL turbo in my twenties. Since then I have had an N15 Pulsar SSS (modded) then we had kids and went all sensible, and bought a 2000 model V40 T4, still a turbo, but a bloody volvo driver. I did my absolute best to shake the old and daggy, no indicators, typical slow Volvo driver, but alas it is still a Volvo, but now it's the WIFES Volvo!! :msm:

Always liked Fords, but they were just so ugly IMHO :spoton:

But then again, the VN was a solid vomit on wheels. :spoton:

The EF/EL was nice, but the XR lacked the punch that I wanted.

I've had about 15 cars over the years. Holdens: VH SLE, VK Gp3 Brocky, VX S,

And plenty of Fords: Laser, xD ESP 351, XB GT 351, XF Ute.

Traded the VX S pac on BA Turbo. With out a doubt the Turbo is the best car of them all. Well the VK Brocky came close but remember is was the 80's.

I have had over 24 cars and none of them a Holden. NEarly bought a VN V8 Calais, but it felt loose, so I got a Mitsubishi instead.

Having owned 7 bitsosh*ti, I am happy with my second Ford/FPV.

My wifes family are all redeyed Expensive Daewoo lovers, but I am slowly converting them to the light.

my last car was a Expensive Daewoo hsv senator vs model. it was a great car and I decked it out with a system with woofers and everything and then 2 months later sold it and bought the t.

I lost out a bit on the deal but I must admit even though the t is a better car the senator was a nice drive.

Well I'm now 2 and 2 with Expensive Daewoo and ford

Started out with my first car being an N/A VL wagon..

then bought a VL Calais Turbo Wagon.. and then thought for a second

"Gee, I wonder what an XR6T Ute would go like"

and 2 days later I was in the Ute.. racked up to many km's on the ute so traded down for an XT and decked that out..

So 2 Holdens and 2 Fords for me...

But the main thing.. I WILL NEVER GO BACK TO Expensive Daewoo AFTER DRIVING THE BA :spoton:
