The end of an icon - Holden is about to be no more

I miss my old VN, she was as deadly on wheels as the Finance Minister.

Thank goodness i decided to get a Dmax, i had a look at the Colorado and after having a MUX for 6 years i chose the Dmax mainly for its great towing ability.

I keep a VQ I've had since the early 1990's for sentimental value and trips to Melbourne- but then again I also like football, meat pies and kangaroos.

Wow! I knew the Commodore was going but I had no idea the whole Holden brand was going as well.
Of well, I've never owned one and would never buy one in the future either. Hopefully the workers will be looked after and find work quickly.

Such a shame. My whole family were Holden drivers. Dad had an FJ, then EH with a 186 red motor and three on the tree, and still has his 6 cylinder HK with two speed powerglide. My brother has the EH now and he had a VN for a while, and my grand parents had a HR wagon that towed their van from Toowoomba to the gem fields every year. We had a HQ for a while too. My uncle had a GTS Monaro and a Sandman panel van. When my brother first got his licence and while in the EH we got T-boned by a guy who came through a red light. The car was fixed up. So many Holden memories.
RIP Holden
