1988 Ford Escort Ghia review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New exhaust.
Overhead cam knacked.
Leaks oil.
General comments?
Only recently has it started playing up.
Quite reliable, always starts on a cold morning.
10 years old and over 100,000 miles so I suppose it's done well.
