The third facelift of the VB generation Commodore arrested the worrying sales slide, but not to the extent Holden had hoped for.
The extra side window behind the rear doors attempted to add the impression of space, while new plastic bumpers, headlights, taillights, dash, grille, and cabin trim, and higher equipment levels, revived buyer interest.
A revised 86kW 3.3-litre six-cylinder engine was now the base motor, while the 1.9 four-cylinder, 2.8 six-cylinder and 4.2 V8 units disappeared.
New standard features: cloth trim, FM radio, seat height adjuster, intermittent wipers, hub caps, retractable rear seat belts, electric boot release, manual remote control left mirror.
Engine options: 106kW 3.3 EFi, 126kW 5.0 V8Special editions:Sept 84 – Vacationer: Air-con, power steering (SL), radio cassette player, decals
