1990 Ford Fiesta XR2i review from UK and Ireland
"A classic performance hot hatch"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Firstly the steering feels a little wobbley.
The fuel cap was very stiff, which broke the key. This is apparently a problem with Ford petrol caps..
The clutch snaps down sharpely on occasions.
General comments?
All above problems aside, the car is very nice to look at, very quick and handles well.
The interior is not to fussy, clean looking and stylish.
I like the car as standard, the only change is a set of new alloys. But the car can be modified almost endlessly.
