1992 Ford Scorpio review from UK and Ireland
"Very good car if well maintained"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Melt down of fuse box
Battery tray corroded
CV joint needed replacement.
Torque converter in auto box needed replacement
Self leveling shocks needed replacement (very expensive)
General comments?
Overall very comfortable and smooth.
Flawless engine if regularly serviced.
Achilles tendon is the location of the fuse box under the bonnet beside the battery tray.
Examine this area very carefully as EC unit directly underneath inside the car and look for corrosion which will cause leaks and interfere with the electrics.
Make sure that the area around the bell housing for the auto box is dry.
Check rear shocks very carefully.
