1994 Ford Escort LX Wagon review from North America
"With a few minor changes from the mfg. I would probably buy another one just for the gas mileage"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Temp Gauge Does not work, needle won't move past cold mark.
Head lights very dim even on high beams.
General comments?
For a 5 speed-1.9 this car has quite a bit of zip even on hills.
I am 6ft 1" and have plenty of leg room for a 60 mile comute every day.
Heater/defrost work great after I replaced the heater core (myself)
