1988 Holden Commodore VL review from Australia and New Zealand
"A nice car that turns heads"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not that much yet, except an electrical problem which I'm still trying to solve. The Engine keeps cutting out when I'm driving or when I give it gas. It jolts violently when it does. Then when it stalls, its really hard to get started.I've changed the spark plugs, leads, cleaned out the dizzy,+ more. If anyone can help, please do!
General comments?
Apart from that, it's an awesome car!It's been resprayed, has 16" polished club sport mags, a 2and a half" exhaust, its been lowered and the interior is immaculate. A quick car.
