My eldest daughter always wanted a V8 Commodore ute.. She got a 6 ltr model but only kept it for a few months... too dear to run (I couldn't tell her) .. she has a Honda Accord Euro now ... :cool:

Post by: duke on November 11, 2010, 13:08:04: I think your correct that the numbers are combined. over on this side of the pond they just don't adv. the touring but the others are flying off the lots. the only dealers selling anything are hyn,toy,ford.

Post by: Ugly Mongrel on November 12, 2010, 02:47:00: If not for the huge numbers of Fords (Found On Rubbish Dumps) in the national taxi fleet, I bet Hyundai would belt them in the sales figures.

You could probably say the same thing about Commodores in the car rental fleet.
