t one month latter we also lost our very loved Fordie the Van. So with all these losses in our family we had to go out and buy a new car, well okay second hand but new to us! So after a days looking we brought home our NEW family member...... ESMAY THE COMMODORE! 
Fairdinkum it's rear end looks as beaut as Elle Macpherson's
The car was named after a great aussie TV star, the one and only stickybeak ESMAY WATSON from the ridgie-didge aussie series A country practice.
And now for the sat's
HOLDEN VT COMMODORE ACCLAIM WAGON
While Commodore has long been Australia's favourite driver's car, the VT sets a new benchmark in driving dynamics, delivering even more confidence-inspiring ride and handling attributes. A stiffer body structure, wider track, longer wheelbase and across-the- range independent rear suspension make a direct contribution, and VT Commodore also benefits from all-new brakes, new steering gear and a re-tuned suspension featuring state of the art Hydro Bush (hydraulic tension rod bush) - a feature previously exclusive to luxury marques and now incorporated for the first time in a locally manufactured vehicle. Traction control is standard on the Acclaim wagon. The totally new braking system provided bigger, more powerful brakes, with a better feeling pedal action and improved resistance to fade. Commodore's proven and responsive 3800 ECOTEC V6 4 speed auto produces even fewer emissions, through an updated fuel injection system, and maintains competitive fuel economy and performance figures.
Petrol Tank Capacity: 75L
The sophisticated handling and safety advantages of electronic traction control, standard on V6 Acclaim model, are offered for the first time in a locally manufactured vehicle. Also has a trip computer and cruise control. The longer
wheelbase VT Commodore wagon, with its increased structural rigidity and independent rear suspension, offers truly sedan-like ride comfort and safety.
Driver airbags are now standard equipment, as are rear centre lap/sash seat belts in wagons and sedans. Front seats are equipped with pyrotechnic buckle pre-tensioners, which are triggered by the airbag sensor in collisions of moderate severity. In more severe frontal accidents, airbags will also be activated. After the sensor has been triggered, the engine and fuel pump will automatically turn off, doors will unlock and the interior light switch on. Rear seat backs are strengthened for protection against luggage impact and seat structures have anti-submarining ramps to prevent occupants sliding under the lap belt in a collision.
Improvements to Commodore's class-leading security system include remote deadlock release, free-turning door lock cylinders, a steering column lock that slips when forced and a new, 16 million code electronic immobilisation feature that means no two cars will ever share the same key code.
