Love watching these in the Australian V8 truck series, takes me back to the days of Touring cars in the 90s where no one finished with any wing mirrors and at least one dented panel.
Bet the back end is a bit lively with no weight over it.

Lovely!

I came so close to buying one of these. I can't have a two seater now and I've only ever seen one of the Holden four seat utes in the UK, so I guess I never will have something of this ilk.

Yes, that's the one and, based on the time it took to sell and its price, was the conclusion I reached without bothering to go and check it out.

I assume yours is manual? 650ish bhp? I'm very envious!!

Not surprised you made the jump quickly
