Silver Monaro, looking clean and sounding very nice. I might be out of HSV ownership but still nice to see them around smile

Stop looking, don't take any notice, turn a blind eye....or you will return to the dark side...and stop checking autotrader......

Lucky enough to find a mint condition 2006 C6 Z06 with only 15K miles on the clock, standard apart from the Borla Atak axle back ive fitted as the standard exhaust, even with the valves was far too quite for my liking. Goes like stink and I’m loving it.......and its not black smile

Stunning!!!! Perfect choice.


I would love your old Monaro to go with this, followed your thread to go to the big Vectra.

Perfect stable your old Monaro with what you have now.

Very nice! What is it about front-hinged bonnets? They look so much better somehow.

Have to ask do you miss your Monaro?

It was a tough decision to get rid of the Monaro as it was the last car a bought with the advice of my dad before he passed away. But every time I got in it, i couldn’t move on so let it go.

Roger at Monkfish done a fantastic job building and maintaining it to the spec I got it to, plus the H122 SC sounded superb.

As much as I loved the GTS, I just couldn’t be doing with keeping it looking clean all the time and I hate driving a dirty car. Plus I hated the fact that every time I fancied changing something, it either took an age to source the parts, or was mega expensive.

The Z06 is a totally different ball game and ticks so many boxes straight out the box, and after going from a 6.0 to a 6.2, a 7.0 litre seemed the only way to go, plus 0-60 in 3.7 secs standard is rather fun and just keeps going through the gears, it’s a beast smile
