1985 Holden Drover review from Australia and New Zealand
"Good for 4WD fun"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The usual tyres, oil filter etc.
Sometimes the transfer case gets jammed in neutral, and I have to pull the 4WD gear stick out and then put it back in again before I can move.
General comments?
Great reliable car.
Has a lot of power for a little 1.3 litre engine.
Lots of fun for 4WD in sand dunes.
A downside is that it has very rough handling on the road.
