The pricing is probably the most contentious part of it... in the 40K+ range locally are a stack of good Japanese cars, and the ones which probably and arguably give the greatest value for money... the Big Aussies. For 40K, you've got yourself an XR6 with fruit, or starting to look at a mid-level Territory... XR6T isn't completely out of reach... and you've got yourself a reasonably well-assembled car to carry your family comfortably, with accessable servicing in just about every town and burgh in this wide brown land, which won't shake itself to pieces on National Highway 1 (or whatever passes for it), and will give good service for a good half-million kilometres if treated reasonably nicely... try THAT in an A-Class!quote:Originally posted by hoonstoppers
...it is STILL a car to be considered by potential family car buyers in the $40K plus segment price range.
