1981 Ford Laser KA review from Australia and New Zealand
"Cheap sporty and reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Points Needed replacing, rotor button, coil, spark leads and plugs and distributor cap, all part of keeping in line. She now runs so smoothly. Looked like they have never been replaced before I did it.
General comments?
Great little car, reliable. Excellent performance. cheap to run, and solid little car.
