Bear in mind that not many journalists these days are older than 40, so for the bulk of them, a decent sized Holden sedan has always been a Commodore.
They think an AU is positively ancient! Russ. |

A company I worked for used to get prototypes from Nissan, Holden and Ford, one of the Commodores they had was the first 'VB', the body number was VB000000, it was a German Opel set up to look like the 'new' Commodore, it did the rounds of promotions before we got it

Both the Opels & the Holdens of the day were products of the GM Detroit design office. Bill Mitchell was the man in charge & Leo Pruneau also worked there.
It's not a coincidence that Holdens & Opels as well as some of the smaller Pontiacs & Chevs share many design similarities. Dr Terry |
