1989 Ford Festiva LX review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Burns oil but it has 301,000 miles on it!! With no major problems so far.
General comments?
This car has lasted me for years of constant travel, all I've ever done is the regular maintenance to it - I love it.
It's just now starting to burn oil - pretty good for a car I only paid 6000 brand new.
