1984 Daihatsu Rocky review from Netherlands
"Very reliable, cheap car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I damaged the rear brake fluid lines when offroading - my own fault. Easily repaired.
General comments?
Very reliable car, I've travelled most European shores with this car looking for the best surfing spots, so I've tested the 4x4 capabilities.
