1998 Ford Escort LX review from North America
"Reliable!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have taken it in for routine check-ups and have only fixed minor things (the battery, tires)
General comments?
This car will not let you down!
It makes a great start/commuter car. (I have actually taken it on a week long road trip without any problems!)
It's nothing fancy, but it gets the job done.
It's roomy and bright inside.
I have had NO serious problems with the car at all!
I keep waiting for something to go wrong, thinking it's too good to be true since I only paid $2500 for it, but it keeps going strong!
I highly recommend this car!
It's worth way more than I paid for it!
