1996 Ford Escort Si review from UK and Ireland
"Quick cheap runabout"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Washer pump went west at 63000 miles, new one cost £30.00
Otherwise the car has be reliable.
General comments?
The good thing with an Escort is that they have improved with age.
This little number returns 36-40mpg
Tops out at around 128mph (Where allowed)
Cheap to service
Kind to tyres and brakes
Good seats, reliable, nippy
Just sold it and got a Focus.
