1993 Ford Escort LX review from North America
"It's a very good,cheap car."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had to change the altenator once.
The seatbelts wore very bad and I had to get new ones put in.
Muffler went out.
Had to change both front tie rods.
General comments?
This car is an excellent first car, it runs well, pretty reliable even in its high miles and it's cheap to own and fix.
It's a very small car wich could be good or bad. not a lot of room in the cab.
The trunk is very spacious, but its also very deep. It's hard to get big things out.
The steering is tight, handling could be better, but its not bad. good gas mileage.
