1981 Holden Commodore SL/X review from Australia and New Zealand
"VH good performance for a good price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch needs replacement.
Coil and leads needed replacement.
Water pump needed replacment.
All parts cheap to bye and easy to fix.
General comments?
A great all round car extremely comfortable for a 1981 SL/X.
The car cost me $1300 it has Air Conditioning, Power Steering and a Toyota Supra 5 speed gear box which makes it a lot of fun to drive.
I would recommend a VH to anyone it is a fun cheap car with great reliability.
It sounds great with a 2.5 inch exhaust system even at idle.
The car looks great and has been re- sprayed by the previous owner in original tahitian blue and it also has tinted windows.
