1988 Ford Festiva LX? review from North America
"I love my Festiva!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Muffler, brakes, tire spindles -- all at the expected time for a car this old and this well-used.
General comments?
This car is wonderful. It is so comfortable to drive, and it has never let me down (except when I forgot to fill the tank :>). I wish they were still making them, because this one won't last forever... heck, maybe it will!
