Nice, unfortunately don't have a 4wd yet, I mainly use the work car which is a front wheel drive captiva, so can' t go to far off the tar!

Nice Coupe.

Must admit, I do have a soft spot for a Holden coupe. # plate implies a 73, yes? Did you build it or buy it?

Rebuilt the coupe over eight years, was a basket case when I got it, the only thing I did not do was the final coats of the paint job. It's great to combine two loves, camping and classic cars.

The Cruiser and Butsy's gets used about 10-12 times a year going to bike rallies.   Most years it also gets set up for a week at the MotoGP...

we have a Captiva we could use but the Colorado has more or less become a dedicated tow tug for the camper

You need the 4wd to see parts of the country that only those with a 4wd get to see.  ;D
Once a month we do a day trip, with others and have a ball seeing country side in our own backyard that most people don't even know is here.
 ;D

 
You don't use magic to disappear, all you need is a 4wd & a Swag ;)

It's a 2012 KXR not a 4WD unfortunately, it's my husband's company car.   :'(. He had a Ford Ranger before the Kluger, it was great.  :angel:
