1991 Ford Escort XR3i Cabriolet review from UK and Ireland
"Not bad for the money you pay for them"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My battery played up a little bit so I replaced it.
Fuel consumption is a little on the heavy side. Mind you all XR3i's are.
General comments?
I have put a nice set of 16 inch Cosworth wheels on it with 205/45 tyres which increased the handling, but slowed the car down a bit.
The interior is very clean half leather.
No rust as it has been looked after and cared for.
It has full electrics and everything is working fine, even the hood after being used a lot.
I like it and am going to hang on to it for a few more years.
