Holden Commodore SS/Monaro 1989-2008
Early Holden Commodore SS models have managed to creep up on almost everyone, except those of course who recognised the potential in these bargain-priced V8s and hid a few away for the future. Recent versions have more power than the VN-VS cars but are also more common and a lot less expensive.

Moving to the Monaro which returned to Australian roads in 2001, the market is still awash with CV-8s and last-of-the-line CV-8Zs. Spending $20,000 will buy an early V8 in usable condition but buying a pristine ‘survivor’ in a rare colour will quite likely cost double that amount.

Could they move at the same rate as 1960s-70s versions? Perhaps, but a lot will need to disappear before that happens.
