1988 Holden Commodore VL 3.0 efi from Australia and New Zealand
Summary:
Great buy now coz of the VX coming out.. in SA around $3000, you can pick one up with mags etc
Faults:
Cracked head at 203600 km.
Remove and repair rust around the front wind-screen, 211000km.
Brake light wiring loom faulty... had my boot on fire - 190000km.
General Comments:
Great car for speed and handling when you lower them... but a rough ride.
Me being a big person, VL's are great for leg room, uncomfortable seating and not much room between my head and roof.
I found that my VL is crap on fuel... may be because it use to be an ex police car for the NT police.
BT1 pack front end works wicked on these cars.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

With the air-conditioner switch, all you need to do is go to your local Holden dealer and tell them the problem and it's not hard to fix it. Can be fixed for under $30.
