1988 Holden Commodore VL sl review from Australia and New Zealand
"A great all round car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
All the door handles and windows had to be adjusted.
Had to get a new fuel pump, oil filter, bonnet cable as it would not pop, new accelerator cable it started to brake, new light bulbs and new brakes.
Had to change all the locks as it had three keys for the hole car.
General comments?
The car has a really tidy inside.
It has just been painted nice red pant job.
Has a nice set of R.O.H mags.
Stereo system that has ken wood head deck, ken wood 6 by 9's in back running off a 1000 watts boss amp, ken wood 6 inch in front and rear doors and also 4 inch ken wood speakers in the dash. Thinking of getting a sub soon.
The next things that I am hoping to get are a 5 inch monster taco with shift light, and turbo charge the engine and maybe a body kit.
