1991 Ford Scorpio review from UK and Ireland
"An outstanding car for the money"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Small rust spots on the rear wheel arch.
Far side rear electric seat motor no longer works.
Fuse box prone to water invasion.
Air intakes needed replacing (after driving through a flood that would have stopped a Land Rover).
General comments?
An absolutely outstanding car. Bought for £1000.
The comfort can only be described as luxurious, full leather everything, internal lights everywhere and a marvelously light steering combined with so much room in the front and back that one is as comfortable as one can be in a car.
The power is very sporty for such a big car, with a safe feel.
The fuel consumption is fine on motorways, 33mpg, however, on short runs it is very heavy and if you're stuck in traffic it would be bad for your health to look at the fuel used on the on board computer.
