1997 Ford Escort LX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Will NOT move in snow or ice. Must be a weight distribution problem, it only spins.
General comments?
The most dependable, toughest and economical car I have ever owned. I use it on a newspaper route 95 miles per day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year for 6 years. Everything (A/C, factory CD changer, cruise) works perfect.
