1985 Holden Camira SLX Wagon review from Australia and New Zealand
"Avoid at all costs"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Fuel Pump broke at 204000.
The Speedometer was sticking.
The doors could be opened with any key.
Gemini Keys could start the engine, but The keys won't start a Gemini.
The rear light flicker on and off.
There was considerable transmission lag.
The Air conditioner Stopped working at 207000.
My head gasket blew at 203000 kilometers.
General comments?
This car rode too low.
The front wheels did not grip well.
The cabin looks and feels like its made of very cheap plasting tht does'nt fit well together.
