1986 Holden Commodore VL 3.0 litre RB 30 from Australia and New Zealand
Summary:
A Definite 'P' Plater's choice, An outstanding Car!
Faults:
Steering Rack was due for replacement when purchased, so took to garage and got a new boot fitted.
Engine got gummy injectors mainly due to sitting for long periods of time. Thanks to previous owner who obviously didn't harness the beauty and pleasure of these cars. Took to mechanic to fix also.
I've got a modified exhaust so exhaust rubbers snap occasionally.
These things happened some time apart so overall a strong, reliable performer which definitely helps on the P Plates which I am on at the moment.
General Comments:
A good looking, reliable, strong performer of a car. Everyone who knows about Australian cars gets a VL for their first car.
Strong grip on road, good performance, good stereo, nice looks. Does not get better for first car.
They pull the ladies no worries also. And drag off mates in Queer Boy piles like Silvia's, Camry's, Falcons etc.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

Top Car mate, I own one myself. A definite Milestone in Australian Performance Cars. A 1980's car that is as ever popular today and still has the go to match. A superb Holden car that is the BEES KNEE'S.
