Epica vs Mondeo

[Oz]

C'mon fella's enough already. All this talk of the Epicrap is making me feel sick.

The low figures last month could be the result of the upcoming facelift and introduction of the 6 speed auto. Maybe they really didn;t have any stock as they ran-out the the old model. Who knows.

Its true, Holden have had just about nil stock of Epica and Viva for about 6 months, which has really hurt sales. But the new model update of Epica is about to be launched and Viva stocks are now improving

Isnt the diesel in the craptiva the 1.9CDTi motor in the astra, I could be very wrong, but thats what one of the guys at work told me, who hapens to own a craptiva diesel lol

hmm..the captiva seems to have a 2L turbo (110kw/320NM) diesel compared to the 1.9L turbo (110kw/320kw) on the astra. Surprisingly, they have exactly the same power output...even though the captiva should have a bit more with the 2L engine...an extra 100CC.

The BArina we are getting has a slightly different front end. No gaping Double Chevy grille.

And the diesel engine in the Captiva IS NOT the same as the one in the Astra.
The Captiva one is designed by VM Vitori and built in Korea.
