Yep. Holden Colorado motor, designed for whatever SUV GM was building at the time. I have only owned a vehicle with a Holden motor once - a Corona with the above-mentioned Misfire power plant. Gave it back to the car yard after a week, got most of my money back. I did own a Holden Apollo but that is actually a Toyota Camry with a Holden badge on it. That was quite a good car until my daughter allowed a friend of hers a jump-start - and said friend reversed the polarity. The battery caught fire.
They aren't anymore, there are no production vehicles or engines currently being built in Australia. The last one built, a Commodore VF, rolled off the assembly line in Elizabeth, South Australia in October 2017. End of an era, General Motors Holden was an Australian icon and a major employer here.
Utility and price. If the cheap thing can't do what I need it to, I don't buy it. If the pretty, more expensive thing performs precisely the same function as the less appealing but cheaper thing, I get the cheaper one. If they're the same price - then and only then does what it looks like matter.
Fit for use is the most important thing I think...simple to use and ease of use ,plus reliability is a must before looks and aesthetic's....more so with any tools or functional things including cars...
They do when they are in Feet..... I've tried counting mine.....I have far in access of four hundred pairs and any thing over twenty digits and I have to stop counting....:(
