1990 Holden Commodore VN review from Australia and New Zealand

"A highway cruiser"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Roof lining sags.

Oil leak at the back of the tappet cover.

Break master cylinder went.

Door seals come unstuck.

Annoying rattle in the dash.

General comments?

The car is a good reliable car, but for me lacks in performance after 1st gear. The commodore is great of the mark, but after it hits second gear its got nuthing till late in the gear.

I have lowered using king springs so it handles a lot better now and has a lot less body roll.
