1992 Ford Festiva 1.2 review from Australia and New Zealand
"I adore this fuel miser comfortable reliable runabout"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought this car in very good condition with full service history. However the belts were old and needs to be replaced. I got a full service done and they replaced belts and spark plugs and oils for Au. $190.00.
General comments?
The accelerator cable rattles a little bit, but I am told this normal and not much can be done. Wonderful little car very easy to park, nice to drive, great on petrol
