that's hard... because i loved my EL and i get that sick feeling when i drive past it as well like 'omg you retard! why did you sell that!'

But in terms of being 'nicer to drive' i'd have to say my ute... because it has a few nice little extras the GLi didn't have (cruise control, sunnies holder & personal lights, manual! a few more kw, strong headlights, a tray! the DTE function is handy too ) i've done more to the ute than the EL too to make it 'nicer' for me as well (sub, extractors, tinted windows etc)... So yeah given that i'm gonna have to go the ute!! Still love that EL though

My BA XR6 would have to be my favourite... but the AU II XR6 wasn't far behind.

Nicest? Current AUII ute (nicest ride, handling, starts, stops, etc)
Best? XB GS coupe, 351 ..... I'd have a Falcon coupe again any day.
