Well the body is modified from an Opel, but everything underneath is Holden.

Yes and its hard to argue against a proposition that the 1970-on Austin X6 is any less unique, or indeed less Australian than a VL Commodore. Both featured distinct bodyshells from their core European design base, and the Austin is probably less recognisable from its origins. If anything the Austins appear more 'localised' in bodyshell and mechanicals. For example most Holden VLs were fitted with imported engines & gearboxes while all X6 engines were of world-unique design and manufactured here
