99 Laser KN engine good?

[IanC]

The KN laser is actually a rebadged Mazda 323. We got one new in 1999 and have done 100,000km. No trouble what so ever however we have always had it serviced according to the book. Make sure it has had regular services and especially sure that the timing belt has been changed. If you can't see receipts for that I would be most dubious. If it has the full service history then go for it. We think it is a great car. If it hasn't got service history then allow $1000 to have the timing belt done and all hoses & coolant changed, full service etc.
