1983 Ford Laser KB review from Australia and New Zealand
"Powerful, zippy, roomy, economical, and sturdy all in one little package :), love it!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Due to poor ownership previously, it has quite some problems, but is still a great car.
* At one stage it would not start in heat.
* Blew a bit of smoke, but fixed.
* Air conditioning tank is broken.
* Paint peeled because of where the previous owner kept it.
General comments?
The Laser I own is a S pack with twin carberettors. It's a 2 door and is the best little car ever.
* Great power out of its motor for a small car.
* Economical.
* Zippy.
* Does great wheel spins, (hehe).
* Strong body in accidents (had one).
* Probably the only small car I would feel safe in.
* Good room for adults in the back and front seats.
* Sits on the road very well.
