1991 Ford Escort Popular review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Suspension bushes.
Suspension parts.
Seat frame.
Seat frame mounts.
Major engine problems.
Rusty bodywork.
Rear heater and rear wipe electrics.
And probably more, I just can't remember, there has been so much hassle with it.
General comments?
I would not recommend a second hand Ford to anyone because of the trouble I have
had with mine and reports from my friends.
They're cheap until the breakdown.
People say it's easy to get bits for them but the newer Mk5 is hard to get second hand parts for. NEVER AGAIN!!
