1987 Holden Commodore Berlina review from Australia and New Zealand

I blew out my resonator in the exhaust.

I then blew out my Cat in the exhaust.

Air conditioning turns itself on and off.

My indicator stalk snapped.

Headlight fuses blew and melted.

Something simple in the ignition disallowed the key to turn over, therefore the car didn't start.

Other than it's few simple problems this car was a real bargain for $4500. It is a Berlina so it has a luscious interior and all the electrics (eg.mirrors, windows, aerial, cruise control etc.)

The engine is great, it hold up, no matter how much I give it. I've got dual fuel on it, it's currently tuned to LPG, but I'm thinking of tuning it to petrol for some extra power, just wondering if it's worth it???

I blew out my resinator a while ago, replaced it, then blew out the CAT, so I got a whole new 2 1/2 sports system fitted with the CAT. Goes much nicer and sounds horny!!

I've also got a autotechnica sports steering wheel fitted which is great!! Other than that, no mods! Mainly cos insurance won't let me.

Anyone with any tips on how to enhance the performance for cheap, comment me or email me at Shan190@hotmail.com

I'm getting some interceptor wheels and my windows tinted as soon as I get the money. And then start thinking about a respray. Just wondering how much a respray would cost, anyone who knows a good place around Melbourne let me know.

Unfortunately I recently had someone stop right in front of me, and Holden brakes being what they are, I went straight into him. I stuffed my front panel and headlights, and his towbar went straight through my bumper and knocked my radiator back. VL's crumble at the front to save the engine. In a way that's good, but can be also very expensive to fix. I'm paying $1200 for this.

Overall this car is a street sleeper and can go like a rocket. Nissan engines rule!!
