    yeah i just had a flick around the Holden Site. Not too many options available like the CDTi, and quite expensive at about $45k rrp for a manual.
    Yeah no choice on engine at all...2.2L or nothing....... but despite all its one of the best looking convertibles around.

    Yes, they are out !!!

    Yes they are available for sale as we speak !!!

    If you want more spec'd models, just give it some time.........Click here to enlarge

    The turbo diesel and petrol turbos are released in Europe, I'll bet they'll come down here with time.

    Just like the previous TS it took about 18 months to 2 years before we got an extensive selection to choose from, I had to hang n wait over a year for my TS turbo vert.......Click here to enlarge

    IMHO the price is one thing that's good !!!! remember with convertibles your getting 'two cars in one' Click here to enlarge

    Just compare it to others in the same class, it ****s all over em and it's cheaper !!! eg: VDub and Pug verts.......

    It is priced exactly the same as the previous TS model and it's a better hard top vert ! no complaints from me about the price Click here to enlarge
