Holden Camira Q&As
Check out real-world situations relating to the Holden Camira here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.
-
Which runabout?
THE Camira was heavily criticised when it was new, and the criticism was justified. They rusted badly, burned oil and fell to bits. Early models should be avoided at all costs, but by the time Holden turned out the JE, most of the problems had been fixed. The problem is they are now at least 15 years old so should be approached with caution.
