"When only the best will do". :thumbsup:

Leon congratulations, that is a magnificent vehicle. er forget everything I said re speed etc and the latest Commodore:D . When you buy a new scope the clouds roll in we all know that but what happens when you buy a new car.. do they close your road? petrol prices tripple or what?
I suppose when its that nice and new even clouds rolling in sees it stay in the garage;)
Happy driving and clear skies
alex
I have to say the the current model commodore really looks the part. the previous model? well when i looked at one i couldnt help but think 'boat shape' :)
what is it? SS?
plenty of scope carrying room in the boot too i bet ;)

Nice crisis!
All I managed for my MLC was to take 8 months off work. Nothing to remember it by but an empty bank balance :doh:
that story sounds familiar geoff :)
Alex, believe it or not the minute i brought it home it rained and is still drizzling now, must be something to do with new things. :lol:
And Ving, no it's not an SS Model but one step down It's The SV6, I didn't want to look like a real "Hoon" :whistle:
Cheers Leon :thumbsup:

Very nice leon,
Have you won Lotto or something?
You'll need something nice to haul the Tak around in!!
Cheers
Doug
No Doug, No Lotto, i wish. Yea i'd need the Tak to be painted orange to match the car. :whistle:
Cheers leon :thumbsup:
Hi Leon, What a nice new toy, very flash indeed. :thumbsup:
Hows that new car smell. :D
Cheers
Thanks Ric, yea, there is something about that new cae smell, isn't there.
Cheers leon
I've heard that it's to do with the glue they use and apparently toxic, but it's still a new car smell though.
Just can't beat it I reckon.
Cheers
