1996 Ford Aspire review from North America
"We love it, but cannot find used parts and cannot afford new parts"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Gas tank and oil tank have rusted out.
General comments?
Cannot find used and sometimes even new parts.
It is very economical to run and that is why we purchased it as we are on a fixed disability income.
A new gas tank from Ford is six hundred dollars.
