1981 Holden Commodore SL/E review from Australia and New Zealand
"Great value for money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had a complete respray after hail damage in 1994
Fitted new engine after harmonic balancer snapped and damaged crankshaft in 1996
ALL new ancillary components.
General comments?
It's a very reliable car, with a lot of kilometres on the clock. Very luxurious for a 21 year old car. 334 pack has all extras including electric windows, cruise and 4.2 V8. Shadow tone paint (black / silver) difficult to keep clean.
