1997 Holden Commodore eclips review from Australia and New Zealand

Well what to start with!!!

I have had two gear boxes put in.

Water pump x 2.

Powers steering pump x 1.

Diff x 1.

Disk breaks all round x 1.

A new drivers seat as the back snapped.

Air con pump x 1.

Tail shaft x 1.

In car fan.

Radiator x 1.

And now at 184000k's I'm up for a engine rebuild.

I would like to say all of the above has been done with my wife driving the car about 98% of the time. I just think that the old car last longer as I have a Chev impala which done not come close to the problems this car has had. I just think the car is not made like they have been in the past. I have hat to do all of the above as my wife just loves holden's and thinks commodore's are S**T HOT.

In the performance side of things the car go's very well as it has a LSD, sports system, cold air intake, lowered 2in's with 18in HSV GTS wheels it looks good and sound great if you didn't know what can go wrong with them I would let her get another one. I would like to say my wife is now going to by a Dodge RAM V8 now after driving a friends which i think is great as i need a new ute.
