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.

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
