1988 Ford Fiesta XR2 review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
In 4 Years, battery, valve stem guides (hence cloud of smoke when started), 1 cylinder packed up at 116,000 miles (leaking oil in 1 cylinder, firing on 3).
General comments?
Very reliable, always started first straight away in the whole 4 years. Nice fun car to drive!
