1993 Ford Escort LX review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Leak in power steering reservoir. Dealer replaced rack under warranty.
Front anti-roll bar snapped after 55k miles. (I wasn't rallying - honest!)
General comments?
While the engine in pre-1995 Escorts is nothing spectacular, good handling and efficient dealer service hold my interest. My advice to anyone considering buying an Escort is to buy post-1994. I'll probably get one myself!
