1984 Holden Gemini SL/X review from Australia and New Zealand
"My little beast!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
After owning my car for six months the welsh plugs began weeping. After pulling off the head we found that the head gasket, bearings and crank shaft all needed some attention.
The windscreen leaks during hard rain.
General comments?
The Gemini isn't a bad little first car, they are easy to handle and economical.
If you go through the right sources they are a cheap car to hot up.
My car is red and that makes it better than lots of other cars.
The shorter gear ratio's can be a pain but come in handy in some situations.
