1991 Ford Fiesta LX review from UK and Ireland
"A cheap, fun ideal first car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The clutch burnt out.
The exhaust fell off.
The petrol cap got stuck.
The fuel injection system was playing up.
General comments?
This car can be very quick when it wants to be, its 1.4cfi engine makes speeds of 115MPH truly obtainable.
I have never had any problem with the way the car handles.
The only real problem with the car itself is the lack of central locking meaning you have to manually lock or open each of the four doors.
