    Both the Berlina and Royal... I think the Royal was a model that only we got over here.. alot of differences with holdens between Aus and nz.. The LH/UC sunbird was a nz only model aus had them as torana with 6cyl we got the pissy 4pot lol....I think the VK Royal was 4cyl and 6cyl injected over here and Calais the V8..
    Bugger all difference between the royal and calais i think?
    correct me if im wrong?
