1998 Ford Escort ZX2 review from North America
"Good"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have gone through 2 transmissions (racing).
My fuse box caught on fire (my fault).
Other then that, the car has been perfect.
Oh, and the brake problem everyone else has been having.
General comments?
I love the car. I have put it through a lot of crap and it is still running. It has great handling and acceleration, and I personally think it looks pretty good.
