1980 Holden Gemini TE SLX review from Australia and New Zealand
"Fantastic car to drive... Heaps of fun"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing at all. I keep the car well maintained. I do every thing to the T. I replace the fuel pump every 40,000, I service her every 10,000 and I do every thing else that needs to be done and it pays off she always dose what I need her to do and she dose it well.
General comments?
The best car out there and it's great no one knows about them.
My little Gemini has been well love and was the best buy ever. She has a new motor & clutch (by choice), new paint and nicely done up inside and a nice little sound system.
Haven't done much to the motor. I move the fan to the front of the radiator and put thermal control on the fans. So if she still hot after a run she keeps the fans running till she's cooled down. She has a 2.1/4 inch exhaust on her so she sounds very nice. You can make these cars LOOK great and very cheap to fix and are like a puzzle- very easy to work on.
