The 'loser' refers to the Rugby game. They love the car.

Some of the reviews they've given the Monaro on that show match ferrari's, lambos or whatever. They absolutely love it.

I think one of the reviews they said it was the most fun to drive car they've ever been in.

But let the holden bashing carry on :D

Its one thing test driving a brand new car, its another living with it and watching it age, break down and rear its ugly head.

Monaro is a good bang for your buck but matching it against a Ferrari? :D

So are you saying Italian built cars, particularly Ferrari are paragons of reliability & build quality? :( They are actually one of the few makes worse than Holden. :D

Everything is relative. I meant in their enthusiasm for the car.

If the Monaro cost $400,000 I doubt it would be met with such enthusiasm :D

Bang for buck wise, they love it.

No, the Ferrari for what its worth is not reliable at all, they are getting much better these days but in the past the engines had to be rebuilt often.

If you want to put it that way, a Ferrari is merely a status car... definately not worth the price and hassles as a track car unles your Bill Gates.

Historically Ferraris sounded pretty & looked pretty. But they were badly built & handled badly. Their handling is much improved nowadays which is in marked contrast to their looks.

      I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed

      Recommendation for engine oil funnel spill free

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.
