Are you going to make them continuous so its got a bit of a story to follow? You could take him through the highs and lows of import car ownership, humiliating bogans, people wondering "wtf car is that", trying to find parts and fix blown gearboxes lol, just some ideas. Keep them coming though, Im keen to see more

Nice to have the second toon out :)

I wish I could put them out more often but I don't know if I could keep up with it.

At the moment there is no real direction (story) for the comic, just a collection of comics revolving around a particular character (Oz the wombat, not the VR4 :p). I hope to develop Oz with a story line, but there is nothing official at the moment.

No need to fix blown gearboxes, I think he drives a manual :)
Killing clutches & diffs with 7000rpm launches then :)

If only cops WOULD pull cars like that over.

I have a great idea for a comic strip. Perhaps Oz goes to bunnings to buy a long piece of timber, can't fit it in his girly mobile, sells and upgrades to a Legnum? :p

I couldn't work it out at first, I thought Meerkat!

Looking forward to seeing your progress :)

When Oz bought his VR4, a Galant was better suited to his needs, but just because he owns the lighter, nimbler VR4 doesn't mean he doesn't respect the people who needed more of a mule than a stallion :p

I can't pin point the reason Oz drives a Galant, but part of the reason was because it better suited his personality and modifying influence (and a small part is because I drive one :p).

Thanks, I look forward to seeing my progress as well (a little secret, the VR4 in the first strip was my first real hand drawn car).

It's not always easy to make an animal look like what it's supposed to be when you are giving it human properties.

By tomorrow i'll hopefully be able to tell you what went in my manual gearbox :p they aren't all bulletproof :(
Seems to be a bearing, just a matter of which one(s)

Loved the typical hyundi with doof, decals and a massive wing bahaha. Suprised it'd be able to spin its wheels however :p must have been wet road.

You need to feature a commodore driver at a set of lights harrassing about driving a funny looking magna, then having the VR-4 pull away :)

Or just have Oz wind his window down and say "Nice offset..." :p

I can't always pick on Commonw****s, there are so many other cars out there to make fun of. Like the ugliest car ever made, the Micra and just when you thought it couldn't get any worse, they brought out the new verson :p

the Ford Ka is worse

The Ford Ka is a close third in my list of ugliest cars. The first is the 2011 Nissan Micra and second is the 2005 Nissan Micra (forth is any car that come from the factory in pink).

Your list is pretty much spot on, although at position 1 i would have the micra convertible, now that was an ugly car
