1979 Holden Torana UC S 3.3L from Australia and New Zealand
Summary:
An example of out-dated engineering, kept alive by misled enthusiasts
Faults:
My head gasket blew.
Clutch cable has broken 6 times.
Battery has died numerous times.
It had trouble starting everyday.
The seats felt insecure.
General Comments:
The car struggles to get to high speeds once in third gear.
However in lower gears, it goes quite well.
Many faults (as listed above), kept making me feel unsafe when driving.
After 3 long years I gave up on this Torana. I highly recommend that nobody buys this car.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

The car was 24 years old when you bought it with 300,000+ km on it. What did you expect? Up to date engineering and faultless reliability?
