1988 FSO Polonez Hatchback review from Chile
"Extremely cheap, zero technology"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Problems with oil leaking, engine very thirsty and noisy.
General comments?
Interior made of very cheap materials. Well equipped the year we acquired it. The car has hard suspension but rolls a lot in the curves. Our car was very reliable (maybe we have good luck).
