Phil Baskerville Posted September 22 Report Share Posted September 22 Hi Guys and girls. I've just joined up. I've owned my Monaro for about five years and finally got it up to a standard where I can enjoy the driving and proudly show it off too. It's a lonely business owning one of these beasts. Spare parts are scarce and can be pricey although consumables are quite reasonable. A few specialist in the UK can help here. Commonly people think the Monaro is a gas guzzler but being 5.7 litre V8 its a lazy lump which can poodle along at 45 mph at tick-over under one thousand revs or return 30 to 40 mpg on motorways. I would love to learn of other owners in or near Wiltshire area. All the best. Phil 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyR Posted Sunday at 09:50 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 09:50 PM Hi Phil, and welcome to the club. That is a nice looking ride you have there. I haven't seen many Monaro's about around here in Norfolk. I think i saw a red one before lockdown at our local McDonalds, but it could've just been passing through. I would guess that the "lazy lump" has took a few people by surprise. And such good mpg for a V8. And I thought my little 1.6 had good mpg....
