• Mrs Hammer and I are currently driving up the west coast from Sydney to Brisbane in a rental SV6. Lane discipline is non-existent, speed limits are slow and generally adhered to and so far there has been virtually no traffic!

    This car is wierd, in theory loads of power but putting your foot down whilst moving just drops a few gears, increases revs and holds the speed with little to no acceleration unless you then floor it. Vague steering and a rubbish engine note.
    Haven’t tried sport shift yet, maybe that’s better.

  • Nah mate, Commodores are really shit unless they have a V8, even then .... Still perfectly fine for highway cruising. Steering should be better though.

    Also, east coast....

  • It tightens up quite a bit in ‘sport’ but overtakes are still a bit dodgy, like nothing.. nothing.. POWER!!!
    Steering is better hustling through B roads but I’ve got used to our 5 series telling you exactly what’s going on.
