I hope for your sake that your comment wasn't directed at me - have you actually seen what I drive? That's right - I drive something that has put me on the receiving end from a lot of people on these and other forums, but do you want to know why I chose it? Because of "how well it drives". It has even converted the privileged few I have let drive it as well.

Back to the topic, I stand by my comments. It's not just the green screens - if Holden can fit a decent IRS (on a stiffer chassis), better gearbox & diff, and storm into the 21st century with some colour screens (which aren't placed at the BOTTOM of the console!!!), then there will be MUCH less to critisize. As it is, they are *nearly* all engine and nothing else, save for some reasonable levels of tyre grip (it ain't coming from the chassis, and I am well qualified to comment on chassis competence thank you very much!) The only other thing I see going for them is a better choice of leather colours etc. over the BA.
