1995 Ford Escort LX review from UK and Ireland
"This Car is the worst car I have ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Complete new exhaust system need to be fitted, including the Catalytic Converter.
Clutch started slipping at about 90000 miles.
Both Front Suspension Struts had to be changed three times due worn Ball Joints & Bushes.
Starting Ignition needed to be replaced due to ware!
Door Locks worn and sticking.
Door Keys & Ignition keys worn.
Both front Brake Calipers broke when new pads were fitted. Both Calipers need to be replaced.
Both real oil cylinders needed to be replaced.
Automatic Boot UN Lock Button would never work.
General comments?
The general performance of the Car was extremely sluggish.
The usual rust on the body work you can expect from a Ford.
