1999 Ford Escort ZX2 review from North America
"Great deal for someone who needs dependability"

Hood latch broke at 90,000 miles.
General comments?
This car was a great deal.
If you are a small person with small pockets, this car is a deal.
The few, inexpensive problems were not bothersome.
This car has excellent gas mileage.
Even while gas prices continued to soar, I paid around 12-13 dollars to fill it up.
