1988 Holden Camira SL/X review from Australia and New Zealand
"Good little car with good power, and handling I find it reliable. I would go for a manual camira"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Small vibrations at idle.
A little hard to get into 1st gear.
Slight knock on right hand side when turning.
General comments?
The Camira 2.0 litre has surprisingliy a lot of power for a small car.
The car handles well at low and high speeds.
The camira 2.0 litre is not too bad on fuel costs, I drove it from Melbourne to Adelaide on just on one tank of fuel.
I find this model camira to be a reliable car with not too many major problems and very good power as I keep up or beat most six cylinder models of the same year.
This camira also has very roomy boot space, like most size six cylinder cars.
