You can see where they were going and where they grabbed ideas from - but clearly didn't use a decent car designer |

Hi Guys,
Another car i wouldn't buy you can't now anyway was a Holden Camira remember them? They had heaps of problems, one was rust underneath the windscreen and in nearly all the models. Models equipped with a manual transmission had a firewall cracking problem because the clutch mount tore the firewall mounting structure. Engine mount breakages were known to occur especially when the car was driven roughly. There's more problems but i haven't got all day to write them. |

The J-Car export program saved Holden. Enough cash till GM injection of funds. No engine export program... vk end of the line.

Also, note the surfboard on the roof. Looks like a 1990s thruster, the 'potato chip' with no volume in it that made paddling in a struggle for a generation of recreational surfers. If you bolt your surfboard to the roof like this, the nice white foam will go as yellow/brown as this one. So take care of your boards and make sure they have enough foam to float you.
