Early Craptivas were even worse than the later editions.
Make sure you are close to a Holden dealer if you have your heart set on one.

Those Crewmans are very long. It'd be like parking a Limo.

Big gas guzzling beasts too.

try a nissan pathfinder

That one also looks like it may have been lowered and it has had bigger wheels installed.

If you defintely are keen on a vehicle like that and have never driven one. Then I would suggest taking it for a major test drive.

Take it along motorways and back roads. And certainly city streets and supermarket carparks etc.

You may soon realise that the sheer size of it, and the heavy duty springs and shock absorbers, and 20 inch wheel and tyres are not for you.

Looked at them and think they are ugly

Yes indeed. They are definetly better vehicles.

But for the same year model, the price is a lot more than a Holden.

Had a look at a captiva, but was so not impressed. Bought a Commodore Sports wagon instead, and am very happy with it.
