1987 Holden Commodore VL review from Australia and New Zealand

"A very fast car especially with a t-26 turbo on it,"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I have had the car for four years and the only problem that I have with the car is that it over heats a lot so I put a trust inter cooler in it and now the problem is that it is too powerful for me to control.

General comments?

In all honesty the VL turbo (BT1) is a cheap quick car that does not need a lot of money to get up to the speeds that you want and the VL is a stylish car (you have to admit it) all you need to do is: have a decent paint job, get some 18" wheels, tint the windows and lower it and you already have a nuts VL.
