1992 Ford Fiesta SX review from UK and Ireland
"The insurance premiums for the car were high, but that far out weighed the money you save"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing really has gone wrong with it in the time that I have had it.
The one thing that has is that it does not like to reverse up hills, thus trying to stall itself. still haven't found the root of the problem.
Because the car is ten years old, you would expext their to be a bit of rust around the front and rear valencies.
The sunroof leaked like a sieve, the rain gutter had rotted away, easily repaired.
General comments?
The interior other than the water damage, which is booked in to be sorted out is like new. the rest of the exterior is in pristine condition, seeing as it was owned by a construction company.
The usual rot spots in fiestas the wheel arches and the petrol cap, were all sorted out by the company who had it before. which saved me a bob or two.
Surprisingly it is quick for a 1.3 it can beat any nova and 205. I have even managed to fend off a fiesta S.
