Smile Re: So when is the V8 coming?

Some people are impulse buyers and this may have been the case.

People,you can make what you want of it or go do something else useful with your time instead of wasting it on a so called troll which is rather rude really,especially if he has bought one.

Rodge,your passion for this new s/c engine is getting a little Chairman Mao like .Im sure its all good intentions but its getting close to overkill imo.

I would say TRoll nobody goes out and buy 2 Holdens , when only having tested one of them.

I think you'd better find a more appropriate forum where you're posts will be more appreicated. I am sure one of the other AFF members can direct you to the Holdung forums

To the moderators. This thread has no value whatsoever on the AFF, may I suggest it is removed, the OP has no idea and there's no point in him being on the AFF other than to perhaps "stir"
So are you on Barrett's payroll or are you just so one eyed that you cant possibly understand some people DONT want FPV's? Every time this comes up you spout the same rubbish.

You best remove the reference to Mercedes in your sig before one of the usual suspects jumps on you for not buying a Ford........oh wait you're one of them.....

Actually they do, I bought an FG XR8 without even driving one. Does that make me a troll?

He then started backtracking when I told him I prefer a V8. I have bought a few Rangers off him over the last year so I know he wouldnt dick me around but still a bit sus he just wants a sale now.

I need to know whether its coming or not and when. I want to get my new car sorted out today just so I can get it all done by tax time. Does anyone know of any dates? I am willing to wait a few months if I know its coming.

Apart from that love the car.

Cheers

Phil
