1979 Holden Kingswood SL review from Australia and New Zealand
"Prestige motoring"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My hydraulic power steering hose started to leak and needed replacement.
General comments?
This car handles like a dream and feels like your driving a tank.
The 4.2 V8 has high potential when equipped with a four barrel carburettor.
