1993 Ford Escort GT review from North America
"A reliable fun efficient vehicle"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
I have had 6 different cars and this one has already been my favorite. I bought this car off a man who babied the car. He gave me a folder about 6 to 8 inches thick of reciepts of all the things that was done too the car. since he purchased it brand new. He put a new clutch water pump battery and replaced everything on the front end the car has little rust. I paid 1200.00 for a flawless vehicle. Needless to say i got a deal since then i have nothing but good things to say about the car. The car is a surprisingly fast car it goes up to the redline no problem i would have to say 2nd and 3rd gear are amazing. And when you go to the gas station and realize you are getting 30 miles to the gallon you can do nothing but smile. So as i push a button to pull back the sun roof and throw on some sun glasses and blare my radio I can only thank the man who took such good care of my car. I am planning to get a quarter million miles out of the car and it should be no problem.
