1985 Holden Calais VK review from Australia and New Zealand
"Reliable tough motor vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My radiator needed replacing at 140000kms.
I had to rebuild the automatic it has received a hard life though.
I had a couple of powersteering leaks fixed at 180 000kms.
General comments?
This car is not extemely quick as it is a standard motor that is almost 18yrs old, but it doesn't blow any smoke at all.
It is fully optioned with electric sunroof and windows and all are in good working order.
