1997 Ford Fairmont Ghia review from Australia and New Zealand
"Brilliant daily driver with lots of great features"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Interior door handle broke.
General comments?
Very comfortable.
The Ghia as comes standard with the performance motor from the XR6.
Quite powerful and quick for such a large car.
Safety features are excellent, including dual airbags, side intrusion bars, ABS, roof strength.
Excellent standard feature, 9 speaker stereo, climate control, cruise control, power windows/steering/mirrors, central locking and immobiliser.
Overall a great car!
