  1. The Australian Commodore was an amalgam of the Opel Rekord and Senator modified for Australian conditions. Holden even produced front panels for Daewoo Royale as the same panel was used in our Commodore. I remember first seeing an Opel in China and it just looked like a shrunken Commodore. The main difference was under the bonnet. Our choices were 2.85 L I6 3.3 L I6 4.2 L V8 5.0 L V8

  2.  @WOKE-is-LEFTISM  yes -the early ones were an amalgam of two Opel models (front from a Senator (to fix a Holden 6) and the rest from Rekord) and changed because the front fell off an Opel test mule. the Australian engineers were the reason that Opel used rack and pinion in the Senator. The VE and VF were Australian designs using the Zeta platform which they also used when Holden did the design work on Camaro. They were specifically designed to be either RHD or LHD.
