1995 Ford Fiesta quartz review from UK and Ireland
"Brilliant"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The carb went on it and a new one cost £130.
The c. v joint went and the 2 back shocks went aswell.
Rust around the back wheel arches and on the sills.
General comments?
It is not really quick for a 1.1 but what do you expect with 115000 miles on it.
Every time someone gets in the passenger front seat the back falls down a bit. It does not wind up at the knob so you have to take it off and wind it up with a pair of vise grips.
