Spotted Cruze Test Mule

[MatsHolden]

I spotted this the other day in Mt. Martha/Mornington. Could be a number of things... a facelifted Cruze with the 1.4L turbo, the EV Cruze or the HSV Cruze in early testing or something else. Was interesting anyway.

lol or that. Jokes aside I wouldn't be too embarrassed driving around in a Cruze, they're a nice bit of kit, just need some better powerplants. Emailed them to Paul Gover and he said he'll see what he can do, whatever that means. lol

lol yeah was a bit of an effort. I was going to try to get some more but I was starting to feel like a stalker.

Stalking or not it's for the greater good

So what are the obvious differences there ?? or is this actually a test mule ??

Looks like a private owner with an imported Deawoo variant of the Cruze, fitted a car bra and covered the badges from likely embarassment

Obvious differences are whatever was covered by that car bra and by the tape on the rear badges and what was under the bonnet. As to what exactly those differences are, guess away.

theyre probably dragging more attention to themselves by covering up the badging and the hubcaps that way. most people (well infact almost everyone who saw it) would of thought it was a normal cruize

True, although if someone did have a keen eye and noticed a 'Turbo' badge or whatever it may be then we'd know what it was. Whereas by covering them up, it got my attention and we know it was something different, but as to what we can only guess. Should just take the badges off! I spose black tape is quicker. lol
