Comments from the seller
In immaculate condition....Recently had a major service so you wont need to spend a dime. If you’re looking for a really, really, good used car that's been comprehensively serviced and looked after with all the luxury and sophistication of the top of the line Calais, then this is the car for you.
It’s been exceptionally maintained over its life, continuously garaged. Lots of preventative maintenance has been carried out on anything that showed signs of approaching the end of its life. The last service on this car I spent 11 grand on replacing things that were wearing out before they gave out, replacing the timing chain, both front shock absorbers, both front brake discs and pads, servicing on the automatic transmission with new transition oil and filter, and I've fitted premium platinum spark plugs.
I have owned the car since new. The car has always been serviced by a Holden dealer Service team and only the best oils and lubricant have ever been used. It’s been run on 98 octane fuel it’s entire life and has had engine friction proofing reapplied at every oil change. It’s in spectacular condition. Almost no dents or scratches on the exterior paint work. apart from one small dent in boot lid from a branch falling out a tree during a storm. ( see attached imperfection photo) and few small dings on one wheel arch from car doors in carparks .
Inside it has seven way electric leather seats for driver and passenger, with driver lumber support and memory function, and they are in perfect condition, variable speed and intermittent wipers. It has, heat reflective, darkest legal tint on all windows. It has split zone climate control, that's been recently serviced and re-gassed, cruise control, Bluetooth hands-free phone connection ,steering wheel controls for audio, hands free phone calls and trip computer selections, a 6CD changer with 7 speakers, as well as aux input. I have a separate blue tooth streamer for audio streaming from the phone to the car audio that ill leave in the car. Central locking with two sets of keys and seat memory function for each set. Electric mirrors and windows with child lock option. rear seat has a fold down armrest that opens to a pass through from the boot and doubles as a table/drinks holder for the two back seats. (see attached picture). A 12 V power socket in the central glovebox. Boot opening button in the glovebox
Outside, it has nitrogen filled low profile performance Tyres. Parking sensors in the rear, with sensor display on information panel ,( see Picture), ESP and ABS, and sports shift mode, as well as manual shift. It has a two ton aftermarket, removable (with lock) tow bar. It also comes with a Haynes Commodore repair manual.
The car runs around 10 liters per 100km as seen from the photo from the trip computer.
THERE IS ALSO A VIDEO SENT FROM THE HOLDEN GARAGE THAT GIVES THE FINDING OF THE ROAD WORTHY THEY DID ON THE CAR,
I’ve had this car since new and loved it, it’s never missed a beat, but now it’s time to pass on the fun someone new.
