1999 Ford Escort ZX2 review from North America
"An over all Great Car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Mostly normal maintenance.
New tires.
New back brakes.
Back brakes squeak.
General comments?
This is a great car for the money. I bought mine used in 2004 with 75,000 miles on it for only $3,500. They are quick and good looking, and good on gas.
My car also does great in the snow. I bought it last winter and it drove perfectly in the snow.
The interior room is minimal. I am 6' and the seat fits me perfectly when slid the whole way back. Someone any bigger might have a problem. The seats are very comfortable however.
I would recommend this car to anyone. They are cheap and good on gas, and beat up on talons and eclipses. There are many mods you can purchase for this car as well. If you are looking for a good looking, cheap and reliable car, then a zx2 is the car for you!
