HOLDEN UTE V8 SS THUNDER

published

Best Ute I have ever owned. Looks fantastic and drives like a supercar, but I can fill the back up and drive down the dirt roads and the back roads to the beach and it handles it all. Surf board in the back, lawn mower, tip run... handles it all, then I can wash it, park it in the garage and it’s gorgeous to look at too. 5⭐️

Commodor 2010 SSV Holden Ute

published

I've always owned Holden's. I brought this Ute when I retired. It's very comfortable and good on fuel when cruising Performance and handling is superb and I love the sound it make when changing gears!
The interior is very roomy, the leather seat are comfortable too. The instrument on the dash are very well lite up easy to find and read. It also has a great sound system. I love, love, love, my Holden Ute.

ss ute

published

Ihave the 2008 ss ute..love driving her everywhere,is an auto with triptronic which i have not worked out how to us.
But have had the rear lights fixed as they leaked water the back window refitted as this leaked buckets of water, the stereo does not turn off when the door is opened, the speedo keeps failing to work, and when going up the Gillies range which is 19km of winding road all i can see are the door pillars. But a beautiful car/ ute which is wicked fast. Lopes along at 1000revs,wld like to drive it fast but the speed limits around here are 80, handles beautifully very stable on the road..I could drive it to melbourne just to enjoy the experience of it, has the chev badge and engine

published

I have a 2009 SV6 ute it would have to be the best car I've owned handles well has pick up when needed and awesome on fuel i've never had a problem with it the only thing I don't like about it is the front side pillars there to wide and makes it hard to see on a roundabout. Other than that I love it.

Very Happy

published

VE Series 2 SV-6 Thunder Auto. Very happy with my purchase, drives and handles like a sedan with power to burn. Compared to earlier models, the late models are truly world class now. Recently drove the vehicle on a holiday with extensive highway driving. It returned 8.7 litres/100K (32.6 mpg) for the journey.

First VY SS had noisy lifter noise which dealer could not hear. Got rid of it. Second VE SSV gear box crashed after 1 year, replaced with 2nd hand clunky box after dealer mucked me about. After 20000klm lifter noise appeared as in the first car. Didn't argue this time, got rid of it. One person said to me that they didn't know holden made diesel motors (when starting up). I do not know how holden can keep selling these chevy motors. As l said holden dealers are deaf. The RACV mechanics are not deaf because they told me they all sound like that. I have RAVC report stating noisy motor. Holden never again.
Good fun for 1 year
Rubbish motors. Dealers treat you like a [censored word removed]. Cheap inside

Excellent

published

Had the SS for about 19 months now, my third SS ute.
Great to drive, even when loaded with my work gear. If you can't drive a powerful rear wheel drive vehicle, don't buy this one.
Build quality is way down on previous, thin metal panels, cheap glass, really poor paint quality (chips easily) and the computer gets confused occasionally.
Otherwise it still has the usual reliability, never breaks down starts first time every time and is FUN to drive. Effortlessly runs around everywhere in top gear if needed, ESC keeps you on the straight and narrow, just a great cheap form of transport.
Cheap, fun to drive, handles like a dream

My be ute has been nothing but trouble since I bought it new. Constantly back at the dealership getting warranty work. And as for towing, well on days when I have to tow I still use my 94 model falcon ute. My first and last Holden.
