2000 Holden Statesman WH V6 supercharged from Australia and New Zealand
Summary:
Exquisite
Faults:
Had a slight drone from the rear when in third gear. Holden replaced the rear K-frame to an updated one (series 2) with dampers at the end. It fixed the problem. Note: When the K-frame was replaced it was after the warranty expired; still they gave it to me free, but I was asked to pay for the labour - no problem.
After 6 years (85800 km) the supercharger gasket blew and had a slight misfire. Replaced the gasket myself and it was as good as gold.
General Comments:
The car is very comfortable to drive, with a lot of legroom at the rear and front. The suspension is soft and it can tow a 5.5 meter boat with ease. The engine is also smooth and can hardly be heard when running.
Visibility through the windscreen and surround is very good.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

No, I would never ever buy another Holden. I have a WH Holden Statesman Supercharged 1999. I have nothing but problem after problem.
Right now I have a problem trying to get the power steering pump hose to fit the car.
