Well I think that the Ute is ugly, but the Wagon I actually don't mind. I think it might be because I can not see the headlights.

The front of the VE is sooo ugly like they forgot to put things on/in it. Kinda like the OLD holdens of years ago when parts never bolted on straight and poor panel gaps but thesedays they hide the non-integrated parts with a splash of black paint that just looks sooo totally out of place.

How anyone could say that these things look like BMW's or Merc's are out of their minds. BMW and Mercedes wouldn't be so tasteless to make the car out of que with the initial styling.

Yuk Yuk and Double Yuk.

How embarrasing, that will appeal to all the metrosexuals who need to fit a half a ladder and a bag of potting mix in the back...ahahahah!
yeah those couple of 3ft lengths of 4x2 are going to come in real handy as well
:togo:

lets shorten the wheelbase of the ute and then aim our advertising at tradies :

The first maloo ive ever seen that is carrying something. I could fit all that in the boot of my EF anyway and it would still be more practical.

Holdens turning utes into bloody sport coupes.

off subject for a quick question.

The hard Tonneau cover on the back of both Ford and holden utes, are they easily removed if you actually want to use it as a ute?

Im not to sure about the hardtops that have sports bars, but the normal hardtops come off fairly easy
