1996 Ford Aspire Standard review from North America
"B"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The sheet metal is way too thin to do the job and dent to easy.
General comments?
I really like this car. I bought it for 2500 and have gotten every penny out of it. Great gas mileage, fun to drive. Unfortunately, I feel raped when it comes to buying replacement parts for this car. Whats the deal Ford? The taillights alone are over 200.00. It's terrible. There should be no economic reason for the parts to be that expensive.
