Holden Barina Spark 2010 Video Review

I AM so delighted that Holden released the Spark on the Australian market. For quite a while, I didn't have much to complain about. Now, thanks to the Spark, I do.

This is a car that is perfect for the city. It's compact, cheap to buy and run, has excellent safety gear - it even has stability control - seats four people and is as nimble as a small motorbike.

The trouble is that all this comes at the cost of any performance. The 1.2 litre engine is made for the job but the cost is a car that has to be revved hard to keep up with traffic.  It's just made for the commuter, not the driver, which is par of the course for this sub-light car that costs from only $12,490.
