Nothing wrong with the L300 it was built to do a job and did it well and reliably but due to the nanny laws we now have (yes, you have said it several times over in other threads) it didn't meet current crash test and emissions.
I don't recall star ratings back in the 80s. We thought it was state of the art if it had a cassette radio then and a retractable aerial

Back in the 1980s if a woman got married she lost her job in Broken Hill, NSW, you could smoke inside restaurants and planes and homosexual relationships were illegal in some states.
How far do you want to go back for the 'good ol' days', I'm all for personal freedoms but if it wasn't for certain legislation effecting the automotive industry, we'd still be driving cars with 3 gears, drum brakes front and rear, 7.5L V8s using leaded fuel and carburetors doing 30L/100km.
The L300 was and is a turd, if you put your employees in those as company cars I guess you value human life at $29,950 + ORC's.
