1989 Opel Kadett California review from Portugal
"A very reliable and economic car, with a powerful engine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The suspension is not very good, and it could have some better brakes.
General comments?
A very nice car, a "combat" engine. If you treat it with care, it can run for over 300 000 km without any problems.
Steady car, good performance (max. speed of 195km/h), astonishing...
A must have, with all the extras...
