looks like it could be the new commodore from the states if you look at that back picture and imagine the lights, looks very much like the ones we see today

cheers

thats what im thinking - gto like grill, vy style tail lights, n it resembles the ve proto they showed..

plus the "mules" they test are left hand drive, as per previous model eg. vy

novak

I'm in Broken Hill. Ive seen the car for a couple of days now, but this time I happened to have a camera handy.

Next time crack the shell open dude.

Just make sure no-one is looking and go to town on the thing.

Get pics under the car too... might help seeing whats running underneaths :)

btw it isnt illegal to take pictures in a public place... in america it is. here its only in private that u arent allowed without permission

id say commo aswell.... y dont u rip off some panels n take a squizz?

give ya a clue ghuys, we dont make mirrors in australia, for hyundi, kia or any eurpoean cars, so doesnt leave much to pick from...............

i cant say much more other wise i could get into trouble i recon!

I don't think it's a VE Commodore

Looking at the front grill and the roofline I would almost say that it may even be the next generation Falcon, but I doubt it

I'm pretty stumped to be honest

Could be quite legitimate to bring a European car down here for testing. Europe doesnt experience the temperatures somewhere like Broken Hill would get.

What letter is under the EU circle of stars? That will tell you the country of origin in theory. :D

Looks very Volvo like as their lines have been getting softer over the years.

Saw a prototype Rolls when I lived in the UK in Stratford Upon Avon. Phantom I think it was. This was back in 2000 though.

I'll put my 2c on it being the new magna, rear tail lights, general crappy shape, door handles... and the mirrors :D

Unless ford or holden are going back to the early 90's shape, I dont think it is either of them.

the mirrors and antenna look pretty european..... but if your a european car manufacturer, why would you bring prototypes, or unreleased models to australia........?? Photoshooting??  Also has those european style plates.........

Australia has the harshest conditions! Alot of vehicle testing goes on in the middle of nowhere in NT and SA.

    • You now say stumble, but you said cut out before. Will it slow rev through the cut/stumble? What gap were your spark plugs set to when you them in?
    • I had double clamped all the pipes but I checked them over any way, everything tight and secure. feels and sounds like a electrical short/failure, as it is an abrupt and aggressive stumble, that instantly comes and goes right at 4k mark...like clock work fuel pump and filter are new new coils and plugs injectors where cleaned and tested 200 miles plus ago no black smoke cleaned MAF   same results, other ideas? some other sensor?  
    • Yes, just without the annoying use of the word hybrid. We stopped using that term 20 years ago when we realised it meant different things to different people. Even "highflow" can represent more than one way of achieving the goal of getting more flow out of a turbo. But at least it says what it does on the box.
    • OH, when they say "solid buckets", I always interpeted that as "shimless". (Which is not the same as the "shimness word I invented above to represent the same idea that the buckets act as shims also!!). Still the same problem though. So it appears that buying a "kit" from Tomei is a two step process. Makes sense. Doesn't make sense in the context of a "kit" though.
