1985 Ford Crown Victoria review from North America
"This car has been a dream come true!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The headliner was badly sagging at time of purchase.
Both the throttle position module and ignition needed to be replaced at 36000 miles.
The front brake calipers were sticking last summer and needed replacement.
General comments?
This car has been the perfect vehicle for a lengthy highway commute.
It's big, comfortable, and a joy to drive to work every day.
The gas mileage, though not great, it acceptable for a car of its size.
