Condition, history, originality, ownership, delivery and modification multipliers apply to every car in the library. They are applied automatically when an advertisement is analysed, and the schedule is set out once, on the analyser page.
Projected value in five years
The case for and against
A named Australian auction result behind the value, the last car to wear the Monaro badge, and a market that has already shown which examples it wants: stock, manual, documented. The CV8-Z gives the range a collector apex.
Supply is genuinely large and only the disciplined examples appreciate; a modified auto CV8 is just a used coupe. The 2022 result sits at the strong end of the market that followed.
Known faults and risks
Similar cars, and what they cost to run
The sales fit at minus 0.639 with 3.2 per cent per 10,000 kilometres against the 1.0 assumed here, and return about $37,800 at 90,000 kilometres. But three Australian Monaros failed to sell inside two months in 2026: 84,000km at Lismore in June, a 34,783-kilometre MANUAL at Glendale in May, and a third in June with no distance published. A 34,783-kilometre manual CV8 failing is the significant one - that is close to the best car the model offers. The value moves $45,000 to $38,000 and the risks now carry the clearance problem. SOURCING: aggregator-surfaced results, unconfirmed against the auction house, the weakest evidence grade here.

A Monaro CV8 coupe made $43,500 at the Shannons Summer timed auction in February 2022 - a real, named transaction that anchors this value directly. The kilowatt figure here is the late VZ specification at 260kW; early V2 cars ran 225-245kW and trade slightly below.
It is the affordable modern Holden coupe with a fixed end date, the last Monaro, and the American export program (as the Pontiac GTO) took enough production to keep local supply honest.
Manuals over autos, originality over mods, and the CV8-Z run-out above both - a Z with kilometres and books is the collector pick of the range. Most surviving CV8s have been modified in the LS1 tuner idiom, which leaves clean stock cars carrying the appreciation.
