New Toy

Post by kev73dart »

Hi All

After working in Oz for 18 months, I have never lost my love for the 4 door V8 Holden's, and I have now got a rather special one.
It is a 2010 HSV GTS
Originally owned by THE Tom Walkinshaw
It has a few Walkinshaw goodies on it and is remapped to 455 BHP
6.2 LS3 motor.
Still in love with the Duster, but we are currently building a new motor for it as the 360 is VERY tired!

Cheers

Kev

Like that, Monaro looks from the back - GM so logical.

Can't beat a Holden. (even if it says vauxhall).

These will be worth keeping hold of as Holden stop building big cars next year, especially this with the TWR provenance.

ggod choice, ive always wanted a one but the I thought the vauxhall badge would really hurt the residual values, how wrong i was, theyve not got a bit of a following

Hi All

Yes it is a HSV
Registered as such.
No sign of a Vauxhall badge anywhere!
Thought I might get away with the cheaper tax with it being an import, but no chance, but sod it!

Cheers

Kev
