1988 Ford Crown Victoria Country Squire review from North America
"Someone saw me coming"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The first thing that happened when I bought this car, happened the next day when I was driving home from work. The coil, rotor and the electronic modulator all died at once.
Then I noticed an oil leak and a gas leak from under the hood.
General comments?
The car has been reliable for the most part I just think that someone saw me coming when I bought this one.
