1981 Ford Laser KA Ghia review from Australia and New Zealand
"Aesthetically pleasing and cheap to run"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The cable, connecting the heater switch from inside to the heater under the bonnet, broke. Trivial I know.
General comments?
The Ghia, being top of the range, is highly equipped, especially for a 20 year old car.
Lacks interior space, however. But I can cope, I'm small.
Noisy cabin - due to the age of the seals I think.
Metallic paint is attractive.
