Holden HQ-HZ Kingswood/Premier

HQ-HZs were the biggest selling Holden models in history and decent cars remain easy to find at less than $20,000. Problems can arise though when one sells at auction for over $30,000 and the market then decides that every 1970s Kingswood should be worth that money.

The ones we like for their potential to appreciate are HQ V8s – plain wrapper or in Premier form - with their 179kW engines and none of the emission controls that sent output from later versions of the Aussie 5.0-litre V8 plunging to 126KW.

Next in line for the enthusiast should be an HZ which helps its cause with Radial Tuned Suspension. HZ V8 Premiers in excellent condition can achieve $35,000, with Kingswoods slightly less.

HQ-HZ Six $20,920 [19]

HQ-HZ V8 $33,800 [10]

HQ-HZ Premier $28,730 [16]
