Holden’s V8-engined Commodore is one constant on that landscape. The large family car fare has featured a succession of big-bore engines that are as happy to contest the daily commute as they are to punt around a series of tight, twisting corners. Holden may have made a little mistake with the previous V8, sold as both the down-market SS and the more richly equipped SS-V, in that the manual versions were a bit too much a driver’s car, and a strain to live with day-to-day. Bighted by a heavy clutch pedal and brakes that didn’t ever feel quite up to the job, the SS-V needed a degree of compromise as part of the ownership experience. The good thing about the VF update is the SS-V is now even more of a driver’s car, yet happier in the urban environment than it has ever been in the past. Click on Our Opinion for the full review...
