1999 Ford Escort ZX2 review from North America
"Best bang for the buck!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had zero problems so far. Knock on wood!
General comments?
In the past 25 years I've owned 13 vehicles. The ZX2 is by far my favourite. For $13,200, a really nice package. Reliable, good on gas, sharp looking, great handling, plenty of giddy up. Also, amazing performance results after $1,500 in performance mods. The ZX2 is a fine little ride!
