Description 1 online resource (27 min.)
Summary For some the motor car is a functional and practical machine - for others it is almost human. Dennis worships Marilyn, his 1975 Monaro, a car he has owned and showered with affection since it was new. As he is fond of saying, there's nothing like the sound of a good Aussie V8! However, the 'other woman' in Dennis’s life, his wife Rhonda, feels she has been relegated to second place and wants her mechanical rival sold to finance other priorities - like a romantic overseas holiday. Forced to choose between the two, Dennis reluctantly agrees to sell Marilyn. Meanwhile, down at Melbourne's Cheapest Cars, Tegan, Greg and others seek out the car of their dreams. The yard is full objects of desire of every conceivable size, shape and colour at prices that seem tantalisingly affordable. Will Dennis’s heart be broken? Will Tegan and her friends find true love in the car yard?
