1993 Ford Escort LX review from North America
"Money NOT worth spending"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Escort was great.. until it got into the 120,000 mark. The brakes were a done deal, the brake hose disintegrated, and the shocks in the back of the car wore off.
It's a decent car for gas and stuff, but the repairs for it were unbelievable. Driving it, I could feel every tiny bump I ran into. I don't know the newer Escorts, if they're decent, but the '93.. no way. Unless you want to pay about 1400 for it.
