Yeah your right. The plastic center console lid. The shroud at the base of the handbrake can come away making a gap. Door handles on front doors creaking after a while. Disappointing little things.
On the plus side, I love how nicely the doors close on the BA/BF. Especially the front doors, I hope they stay that way even after 70,000 km's though. |

Wish I could do something about my front doors, heavy, sagging bastards that they are. While the rear doors are absolutely trouble free! Grrr.

Yeah thats exactly what i meant. It looks good in pictures etc, but its so cheap and nasty in the flesh. Territorys even have a hard plastic dashboard

Dad was supposed to replace his VY with a VE but someone got the sack so he gets a VZ. I would have loved to test drive the VE and compare it to dads VY.
IU hoped in one of the VE's at the adelaide show. I can tell you i was not very impressed. IMO the dash is a mix between a astra and the VY/Z and a touch of face lift (common holden treatment). The center console was very tacky and crap. Body wise i was not impressed with those flaired guards. I am not a fan of the SS. They are dog ugly.

Territorys even have a hard plastic dashboard Agreed ... owning both Territory and AU ute ... the feel of thet AUII interior is much nicer than the Territory. The Territory is pleasing to look at ... but try cleaning the dash plastics ... it's a right pain to be it looking sweet. And the Territory plastics mark easily as well. The AU ute seems to have a soft feel to the dash fascia ... dash top and door trims as well. Even my fiancee (non-car person said she prefers the materials in the AU ute to the Territory). Don't get me wrong ... the Territory is a top vehicle ... but the interior plastics could have been better though.
