1987 Ford Escort XR3i review from Denmark
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car is now 12 years old, and has some electric problems. The blinker, RPM viewer, and the back windows heater don't work. This will probably cost some big money to fix, so I won't. The engine just keeps runnin', no problems yet. I have replaced the generator, and a new exhaust is commin' on.
No big problems yet.
General comments?
The comfort isn't very good, but is easy drivin' and very fun to drive.
10.5 from 0-100 isn't very fast, but OK.
High speed response and nice sound is the keyword.
