1983 Ford Laser review from Australia and New Zealand
"Good wee car if ya don't kick it in"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing. And I gave it absolute everything. Wheel spins, handbrakies, rally driving, you name it.
General comments?
Me & 4 mates bought the car, & we kicked it so there wasn't a straight panel on it. Only THEN is when things started to go wrong. Doors wouldn't open, windows wouldn't wind down, horn broke, etc. But before all that, it was great. It wasn't very economical though, cause I ran over one of those springy road signs, & I put a hole in the exhaust mainfold or something. (So the cop said anyway). VERY good on oil & water too.
