1993 Ford Courier Leisure - D/C - 4X4 review from Namibia
"Excellent value for money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
1. Steering arms worn out at 160000 Km.
2. Roof stabilization inside the ceiling came loose, resulting in the cab cracking on the outside.
General comments?
Point 2 above was fully repaired by Ford Motor Co SA at their cost. Many thanks to a superb service.
Engine performance could have been better (down-rated version of V6 fitted ex factory at the time).
Fuel consumption is hefty.
