1988 Holden Camira Vacationer review from Australia and New Zealand
"An economical, powerful bargain from holden"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oxygen Sensor went at 360,000 km;s (causing Engine light to go on and off!)
CV Joint boot Replaced at 380,000.
New engine mounts replaced all round.
Brakes done at 400,000km's.
Rear Right hand door handle replaced and electric antenna.
General comments?
This car was a travellers car, so had done a lot of highway work. Car was in immaculate cond when I purchased it back in 1997. (paid $1,500) and sold it for $2,000 aud in July 2003.
Would have to be the best most reliable car I have ever owned. Cheap to run and maintain!
