Video: Rumbling old-school Monaro is a lazy V8 symphony

For obvious reasons a good few of us are likely getting very tired of the same four walls we’ve been confined to over the past year, so a bit of escapism via a burbling Aussie super saloon feels pertinent.

Indeed, the Targa Tasmania couldn’t be further from the grey confines of UK lockdown and isolation. This 1973 HQ Holden Monaro is everything we wish we could be right now – wild, free and on the other side of the world. 

Lose yourself in the Australian wilderness with this snub-nosed brawler for three minutes and dream of freedom this summer. We will not be held accountable for any irresponsible financial decisions made around rumbling V8 tackle in the classifieds thereafter.

Welcome to Goodwood Elevenses, a mid-morning helping of motoring-related amusement to help break up your day. Watch the last video: The most brutal offroad racing
