1997 Ford Escort LX review from North America
"A Unique and Beautiful Auto, great for drivers young and old!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car is in great condition. Nothing has happened to it and I think nothing ever will.
General comments?
This car belonged to my grandfather and he bought it new in 1997. With it he drove to Florida and back to New York about 4 times so the mileage was very high when I got it. I must say even though its my first car my parents have owned many new Ford vehicles and although I love them all, this one really jumps out and says, "Unique!" the exterior is rounded off with no straight edges and to this day the car still shines like its new. the interior is miraculous. The design is beautiful. The dashboard is rounded in certain spots and I've never seen anything like it. (Besides my mom's 1997 Ford Windstar.) The car handles great and is really reliable. I drive to school with it and back and I never have a problem with it. Its great on gas, especially with the expensive gas prices we have today. I would defiantly recommend this car to any one, drivers new and old!
