Thread: Holden Colorado 7

There's something a little SSangYong about the styling. That's not a good thing.

looking at the C7 atm...seem solid and well priced.

it might be worth the wait to see what Isuzu does with thier new model....

I have seen them on 4wd tv and it seems the only way to drive them off road. Is um FLAT OUT

I am quite impressed with the idea of them. More so than the Colorado as it IMHO is not so 'overstyled'
oh and they are abit cheaper too seeing they have been out for quite a while and there are plenty of 2012 stock around.

IMHO a Peugeot SUV it is a typical example how the Europeans can finishing with a better vehicle than the japs using the same basic chassis

Not only on 4wd TV but also the ad from Holden.

I wonder if they would honour a warranty claim for damage when the vehicle had been driven like that.

I doubt it.

In the "cash for comments" affair a few years back, John Laws was done for passing off advertisements for his views and as a result then had to ring a bell when he was doing an ad that could be taken for his views. I wonder why this doesn't apply to 4wd presenters? For sure most of us are aware of what is going on but some people may actually think these 4wd presenters are actually giving their own views - no different to Johny Laws.

IMHO French cars should stay in France

I have test driven every one of the jap utes/suv's over the last couple of months and afterwards I get back in the D2 and go ahhhhh........and I think..what the hell have they accomplished in the 15-20yrs of the D1/D2? the suspension in every one of them is hard, the seats are pathetic, the driving positions are so/so, so they have some grunt but first tight bend and they don't want to go round, something you wouldn't think about in the disco's.....I just wouldn't have one.....reinvest $10k or enough into your disco to make you smile again...or....if you really want new, look at a VW. btw, when you fold the seats down in the 7, theres very little flat load area....raised floor and brackets....check it out, you'll understand what I'm saying. Jeez really for $55,000 you can get a fabulous D3, which cacks all over anything.
