1996 Ford Escort LX review from UK and Ireland
"In a sentence, it was a Ford Escort"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When heater put on 1, left headlight came on, when on 2, the right one came on, and when on 3 they both came on. Ford and independant engineers looked at it, but they couldn't find the fault.
General comments?
Though nippy, the 1.8 diesel was extremely noisy - it sounded like they had got the engine straight out of a Transit.
Nothing much else to comment on! Nothing really to complain about, but nothing interesting to write about.
