1982 Ford Laser Ghia review from Australia and New Zealand
"Good for a first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The distributor started stripping.
Manual choke wouldn't stay out and had to be held.
Radio didn't work (acceptable for a 25yr old car)
Not fast enough.
General comments?
Good for a first car
handles pretty well
real easy to park
with a cut and polish it comes up good
the ghia comes with quite a few extras for example the interior in mine is axceptionally good black velvet seats black dash with silver trim. very comfortable seats. comes with alloys.
