1987 Holden Commodore SL review from Australia and New Zealand
"Excellent value for money, just buy a well looked after one as they are starting to age a bit."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Thought I had a crank angle sensor problem, but turned out the screw which holds the distributor rotor had actually fallen out! wow such a simple thing made the car seem like it had major problems (when trying to start, it was very hard to turn over and obviously wouldn't run)
General comments?
Very powerful car - nice to drive manual is difficult to get used to at first because the engine is so quiet.
