1982 Holden Camira SL/X review from Australia and New Zealand
"A great car!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The rocket cover gasket was worn out about a month after I got the car, cheap and easy to replace.
Minor electric faults, due to bad alternator, also cheap and easy to replace.
General comments?
This car offers great fuel economy because it has a tiny little engine.
It is surprisingly fast for a car of it's age and engine size.
The cabin is bleak due to all round dark blue interior.
