1988 Ford Crown Victoria LX review from North America
"A fantastic car at a bargain price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only general maintenance items,
brakes,
plugs, etc.
General comments?
This has been an absolutely fantastic car.
I bought this car from an elderly woman who bought the car new in 1988. the car was always garage kept and all of the maintenance records were in the glove box. it has the origional paint on it and still shines like a new penny. I paid $1,500 with only 50,000 original miles!
It handles great, rides great, and gets 20 - 23 mpg. (pretty good for a large car)
when this car goes down, it will definitely be replaced with another crown victoria.
If you don't already own one of these cars, do yourself a favor and buy one.
You can't go wrong.
