1998 Holden Jackaroo SE review from Australia and New Zealand
"Very underrated and solid - ages well"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Slipping out of gear and broken drive shaft at 65000km (warranty fix).
Manifold inlet gasket at inlet; 80,000.
Nothing wrong since I stopped taking it to Holden and doing it myself.
General comments?
Reliable, great performance, great vision, comfortable, relatively economical - handling a little sloppy, but it is a 4WD.
