Standard Features on 86 VL
On the 86 VL is:
Power Steering and Air Conditioning Standard across all models incluing the SL??????
<<<There's a good present
NO. there are some without power steering. i'm not sure on air conditioning though. i imagine that it wasn't on some also as the extra fan in front of the radiator was an option.
As far as I know, you could only get one, or the other, on SLs.
The original owner of mine, decided to be cheap and just brought the car, as it was and no options were added. lol
No Air con or P/S.
would be interesting to know what was standard with each model, for example all berlina wagons Ive seen have the roof rack
seems berlinas came with AC and PS as standard
there were also several short term models or option specials, other than the SL, berlina and calais
the calais wagon is rare, only a few were made near the end of the model run

Like driving a tank. lol
It's not bad, turing on gravel, but you have to really muscle it, on a normal road.
The 18s have made it easier, then the old 15s, I used to have, with wide ass tyres.
driving with no power steer is peice of piss grow some arms
Hmmm like I said, it's not so bad now, but I normally drive a Ford Laser, with P/S and more used to that, since I rarely drive my car now.driving with no power steer is peice of piss grow some arms

y dont u drive ur car? i would much rather drive my vl than a laser.. even if it uses more fuel i couldnt care less
Well I mainly use it, as a weekender now or just get it out when I want.
The Laser is just a runabout car and more pratical, because I don't have to worry about it.

yea i can understand that, i hate leaving my car in car parks for obvious reasons
<<<There's a good present
not wrong. i learnt to drive in a big v8 chrysler with no power steering. it did have torsion bars but still.......
Uh you guys, make me feel like a sissy. lol
If it worried me though, I would've put in P/S, but I haven't, for the simple reason, of more pumps and things, means more can go wrong.
Take it out/Take it Back
My SL's got air con (not working, no gas) but no power steering.
When i first got the car the steering rack was farked, rubber bushes gone and a bent arm so the thing used to pull violently to the left, parking, steering, everything was a real bitch for the first month or so, until i got it fixed up, and now i've just come to live with the lack of Power Steering and enjoy the amount of feeling i can get for what the car is actually doing through the wheel and the amount of change i make to the car is whats going to happen, i know on my mums car the PS is really light and i feel like im going to turn it 180 trying to get the car out of the drive.
Its also good because my dads got a rooted back so he cant drive it, and my girlfriend cant because of the muscle factor, so i know the cars always going to be there when i want it
