I emailed him to see if he can explain what a Holden Valiant is, Obviously he must be a product of the NCEA Education System

Actually they were very lucky to have a Holden Valiant, They must have been reasonably well off, Us poorer families didnt have that luxury, We had to make do with a Datsun Austin, but then there were families not so fortunate and they had to make do with a Skoda Vanguard. Poor Sods

I worked with a guy who swore his dad had a 2 door Dodge 'Seedin' sitting on his back lawn. Tried to work out what it was & ended up going around for a look. it wasnt 2 door but 4 door & his 'seedin' was a mispronounced 'Sedan' badge

They've changed it to "Chrysler Valiant" now, another crisis averted.

Amazingly he did with this "Hi Paul, you'll be relieved to know that the online copy has now ben corrected to read "Chrysler Valiant", after discussions with the passenger in said car."
