1994 Ford Aspire Base review from North America
"A great little car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only problem that I have had with this great little car is that the drivers rear speaker quit working.
On cold winter days, the key lock on either door turn stiffly. If I use slow even force, the key does not suffer.
General comments?
I love this car. I would by another in a moment if another nice one comes along. I have read the stories of the problems others have, but I know the original owner of this car and it has went 39000 miles with no work other than a new set of tires, regular oil changes and a good cleaning every week or two. I like the simplicity of this car and intend to perform all of the needed service work <within reason>.
