I owned 2 of these, a 1990 VN Executive and a 1994 version of the same car. Both have about the same qualities, so I'll treat them as 1. It's a Holden, in Australia, it has a huge following. Its a solid car, V6 engine, the only thing I regret was buying the Automatic version, still, they were the first 2 cars I owned... Great Acceleration, handles very well for its size and weight, Can be tricky in turns on a wet road as it doesnt take much to get this behemoth to drift, lots of power on the Rear axle. The appearance is, well, old news, nothing compared to the newer versions, but, nothing too ugly either. NOthing to complain about regarding build quality, didnt have any major problems with the first, the second was a writeoff after another holden plowed into the passenger side. the sidebars are strong on this car. there was quite a bit of damage, but both myself and the girlfriend at the time escaped with naught more than a fright. Would recommend it to others.Dec 05, 2008

5 Litres of Holdens own-built Cast-Iron Big Banger V8! It looked just like the 2nd Gen Opel Senator on which it was based, but under the bonnet was a large-for-the-time 25-bhp V8 engine that just LOVED to push you through the gears! The quality of the car was typically Australian - a touch on the tacky side. However, for the same price of a Ford Escort in the UK, you could have a car that would destroy most things in its path. It was huge too! Even though it was based on the Senator from Europe, it was up-sized. Even with the drivers seat fully back, a 6 feet 4 plus male could easily sit behind the driver! What a car! And they just keep makin' em better!Aug 31, 2008
