1994 Ford Aspire review from North America
"The little purple car that could!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
My battery actually had the nerve to die after I drove the car for 50 some odd thousand miles without changing it.
One of my spark plugs went bad after driving the car for 3 years without changing them.
I blame nothing on my car.
General comments?
Nothing has gone wrong with my car! It is economic, fun to drive, purple in color, cuter than your car, and it has taken me safely and swiftly from Los Angeles to San Francisco and beyond, from Los Angeles to Phoenix several times, Los Angeles to the Grand Canyon and back, not to mention work and school every day. I can't imagine owning a happier vehicle!!!
