2000 Ford Escort finesse review from UK and Ireland
"Fully equipped"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing, no squeeks, rattles, bangs, engine is still clean
General comments?
A cracking car, quite nippy if a little petrol thirsty. brakes and steering are excellent, gear shift is nice apart from a bit of resistance, holds itself well on the road.
Also very good on safety, trust me if you want to keep safe, buy this car.
The car handles very well around corners and doesn't really loose grip, the 15 inch finesse alloys look extremely nice and the body styling is excellent. the interior is well built, arm rest in the back, CD player, good speakers, air conditioning, ford built the last escorts with everything in them and it really shows.
Visibility is extremely good, mirrors well placed, instruments easily reachable.
