    We need to analyse the question. "Which model is better". The freedictionary suggests better is "More useful, suitable, or desirable"

    The way I see it both models have the same level of utility (same size, number of seats, comparable performance etc) , both are well suited for the intended use or user (going surfing and putting a few runs on the board) but one is quite clearly more desirable, demonstrated by past sales evidence and a distinct lack of availability. I have to say Mr Gene - you are barrowing shit up hill bro

    I remember reading it was a combination of future ADR's and that GMH wanted the new WA (originally due in 1974) to be a new radically different design (as you see on both UC and WB). Plus the HQ's dash is probably a carryover from the car's original design as a US based Pontiac or whatever it was to be. When the original WA was either delayed or cancelled much of the design elements were used in the HQ facelifts.

    HQ, no pollution gear, best flowing body shape, coolest (looking) seats. But.... average handler, vents in the side panel, uncomfortable seats.

    HZ, RTS, twin headlights, great seats, great dash, inertia reel seatbelts, great stickers. But.... pollution gear, no GTS guards.

    I love them both (and HJ's and HX's) and would happily own any of them.

    They're ALL great, stop nit-picking!
    Vans.... This is the 2nd time round the block, 40 years later! talk about turning back the clock!
