1996 Ford Galaxy Aspen review from UK and Ireland
"Great if you're loaded and can afford the constant repairs"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Hergo Sensor failed at 95000 miles.
Air pump failed at 95000 miles.
Catalytic converter went at 95000 miles.
Reverse lights haven't worked properly since we got the car, electrical fault, works if you hold the gearstick down.
General comments?
Seats aren't particularly comfortable on this model.
Interior falling apart from day one - can't really take a bashing from the kids.
Cost us far too much to run with so many things going wrong, we had to pay £1000 to get it through it's last MOT, only because the ford dealership we we're advised to take it to kept diagnosing the problem wrong and then charging us for our 'Courtesy car'
