1979 Vauxhall Chevette review from Australia and New Zealand
"Best car I ever had"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The head gasket blew.
Fuel pump died.
Water pump died.
Starter motor died.
The clutch gave up.
General comments?
This car from its faults, should in theory be my most hated car... In fact I loved it.
It was my first car and I still love the look of them (so much so I have just purchased a project chevette).
They stick to the road and handle well.
Also they are something just a little bit different on the road.
