FEATURES:
• RICH MAN, POOR MAN - In years past 'desirable' motor cars were the realm of the rich only. But Australia has produced a 'classic' most people can afford - the Ford Falcon GTHO Phase III. We went out to savour the delights of the Falcon and another special machine, the Ferrari 308 GTB. David Segal reports.
• PROVING THE PINT - Shell's Sydney Economy Run saw many weird and wonderful inventions vieing for honours. Eventual Perth based winner Ralph Sarich set a new world record.
• ILINGA - DID IT DESERVE TO DIE? - Like so many before it, the llinga died a premature death. But says Paul Harrington, it deserved better. He drives one of only two Ilingas ever made.
• DUSTING OFF THE WBs - GMH went exploring the South Australian outback with its new WB Holden commercial vehicles. Along for the ride too was 'Gelignite' Jack Murray. David Segal went to check out the cars, the country and the man.
• JONES HALF WAY THERE? - Australian Alan Jones is leading the World Championship for racing drivers at its half way mark. David Segal looks at the season to date, and at Jones' prospects for a title this year.
• BOOSTING YOUR ECONOMY? - Turbocharging was once adopted to provide performance, but increasingly it is being installed to boost (sorry) economy. David Segal investigates one such Installation.
ON TRIAL:
• FOUR WHEELS INTO THE EIGHTIES - Nissan has unveiled Its ?rst all-new Patrol 4WD in 12 years. And it is as big a step forward as the original one was all those years ago. David Sagal.
• MORE THAN JUST A FOUR - The new Commodore 4 offers brilliant handling and family sized room, but only so-so economy and a high purchase price. David Segal.
