In the current 'Classic Holden Calender 2004' the September Car is a Kalgoolie Gold EH with TAS rego and 67000 miles on the clock.
Yesterday I spotted this car in Annandale (NSW) with NSW rego, and 74000 miles on the clock.
The new owner is Rosso (of 'Merrick & Rosso', TV and Radio personalities) who said he also owns a P76.  So these guys are cool after all!
Whats the chance of the November Car, Des Gillett's Frankston Cream FE Utility getting to Sydney too?

The M & R P76 appears in their TV ads and was also at MotorEx. I think they are trying to state that an uncool car can be cool under the right circumstances.

I dug up a few pics I took at MotorEx of a fridge being airbrushed with the M&R P76 that makes it look even cooler. Far from finished, with the colour yet to be added, but you can get the idea.

Tell ya the truth, my mother had a P76 for nearly 20 years.  At about 5 foot nothing, she looked a bit small in the car.  My kids, when they were little, used to refer to grandma's car as the "driverless car" 'cos from the back you couldn't see her in it.

I reckon M&R chose a P76 because they needed something that would get people to point and laugh at them - they're unfunny otherwise  Roll Eyes (only my opinion tho').
