Talk:Holden VL Commodore SS Group A SV

Untitled
The brochure reproduced at clearly labels this model as the Holden Commodore Group A SV. I suggest that this article should be renamed accordingly.

The sticker on the bootlid and I think front fender said SS Group A though didn't it? Does the brochure hold precedence over the actual car? The article has some inaccuracies - based on the VK SS Group A? Surely it was based on the previous VL SS Group A built by the Holden Dealer Team? --Falcadore 11:16, 7 September 2007 (UTC)

I've changed the "VK" reference to "VL" in the article so that's the easy part fixed. The photo in the ad on page 284 - 285 of Chevron's "Holden, The Official Racing History" shows SV rather than SS lettering on the front guard. This ad also uses the term "Holden Commodore Group A SV" without any mention of "SS". However looking at the photo of the dashboard "build number" decal at I see it uses the term "SS Group A SV". The "Mission Impossible" article in Australian Muscle Car Issue 13 refers to it as the "Commodore SS Group A SV". Which makes sense when you consider that the basic "5000 build" car for Group A homologation was the "Holden Commodore SS" and the TWR "500 build" evolution model would have been the "Holden Commodore SS Group A" except that Brock had already used that for his earlier evolution model so the TWR developed car became the "Holden Commodore SS Group A SV". Above all else, it was officially a Holden not a HSV. GTHO 00:30, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
