Peter aka CarCrazys VL

Technical Advisor for the S.C.C. Car Club
and area Rep for the Hornsby/Newcastle area.


I have owned this car for just over six months now, I bought it from a Holden dealer for $5300 with six months rego. It was a full stocker owned by grandpa for ten years. It had every piece of wind deflecting, bonnet protecting plastic available on it. It had mud flaps, horrible 14inch mag wheels with 215/65/14 tyres on it, and a to top off the visual outside delights chrome strips all over the grille. On the inside it had fake wool seat covers front and back and a terrible formuling steering wheel. That all came off within a week with the wheels following five painful months later.

The good things about it were.

It's a factory manual.
It's got a full log book of Holden servicing.
It's been fully resprayed and looks like brand new
It's got no rust
The motor and gear box are in perfect health.
