1992 Ford Fiesta xr2i review from UK and Ireland
"Rusty and unreliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rust and more Rust
Leaks oil very badly and burns it.
Suspension soggy and bouncy.
Needed new injectors, water pump, and starter motor.
Engine management has failed 3 times.
General comments?
This car has cost so much money to put right and then it keeps going wrong again.
It never has been very quick and does not handle very well. Lowering it may do the trick.
Frequently has flat spots on accelerating and used to misfire a lot.
Major problems with rust.
