1993 Ford Escort Si Cabriolet review from UK and Ireland
"Good fun cheap cabriolet"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Driver's side wheel bearing.
Passengers side wheel bearing.
Wind screen wipers.
Front tyres.
General comments?
Not the best looking car in the world.
Electric roof with heated glass window was good, but without the cover on, it would get in the way of the rear-view mirror.
Was very sporty feeling, with very nice bucket style seats.
Standard stereo was not too good.
Had bad scuttle shake on bumpy roads.
Engine is amazing; being a ZETEC it's very efficient.
Good boot space, and the rear seats fold for better space.
Would give Corsas and Saxos etc a good run for their money!.
Top speed I had was a little over 120mph.
