1993 Ford Telstar GL Wagon review from Australia and New Zealand
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Virtually nothing.
A waterpump @ 12000km, new brakeshoes (for the first time!) @ 154000km.
The central locking went @ 130000km.
General comments?
it's nice to know that they still build cars like this to last. I put petrol and oil in it and change the tyres-apart from that it starts every time, does 35mpg on unleaded 91, is comfortable, quiet and a pleasure to drive;I love it
