Had our weekly staff meeting at work this morning.

Our dealer principal drove the new Barina on the weekend. It was driven back to back to the Echo and he also drove the old Kalos

Apparently it $hit$ all over the echo and isn't even comparable to the kalos


If he is right, the holden engineers must have working a bloody miracle!!!

BTW, prcing starts at $12990

Yes but I see ACA named the current Opel Barina as one of the best cars on the market for fuel economy (along with the Getz and Echo)... will this new wonderful Barina have good fuel economy?

And how much longer until it's out???

Geez Namus, you're slipping there a bit aren't ya, usually you are all over it!!!

$12,990 should make the tiny-little-car market interesting :)

BTW - I take it the Echo driven was the current one? New one already on sale in Japan.

yes the Echo driven was the model that is about to be replaces. The new model Echo is going to be priced a lot dearer than the current model

I'm sure I saw an article in a local newspaper in a Lygon street cafe about a particular model of the Astra H being made in Korea. If that wasn't true then maybe those two models that offered to have sex with me wasn't true either :(
