1983 Ford Laser kb review from Australia and New Zealand
"It goes great until 290,000 kms"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car blew a lot of smoke when I got it. CV joint broken at 285,000 steering boot split. the car leaks oil. recently cracked the head.
General comments?
When I got the car and when it is running good, I think it is one of the fastest 1.5 litre cars around. the other thing is it drives like a boat.
