1979 Holden Commodore review from Australia and New Zealand
"Cheap car that has good performance potential with a bigger engine."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had the clutch cable break.
Had the clutch fail.
Windows were scratched by the rock hard window seals.
Holes in the exhaust.
Brakes are squishy.
Clutch pedal squeaky.
Rusted headlight reflectors.
General comments?
Good cheap car, though not cheap to run.
A car that has held up well considering its 24 years old.
