1982 Ford Meteor GA review from Australia and New Zealand
"Grandpa's Car handles like it's on rails"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car takes to long to warm up in the
morning.
Choke doesn't work good.
General comments?
The ford meteor was given to me from my
grandfather he bought it in 1982 brand new and gave it to me as a present when
he bought a new car.
The car was very well looked after you should see the way that it shines the chairs in inside look brand new.
The oil was changed every 5000km and tyres pumped very often.
I took the speedo to 130km because it goes to 160km man it flew.
I wish it had a faster engine.
