"A very good looking, fast enough, quality family car"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Sometimes a noise appears from the driver's seatbelt.

General comments?

Despite Ford claiming only 103 hp, my car has 109 hp (dynojet with approvement ISO 2001). Also, the highest speed I ever travelled was 210km/h, although the constructor gives only 185km/h. Can somebody tell me what is going on?

Very good brakes, but when they overheat, sometimes they are noisy. ABS is the best!

Very good suspension, excellent handling.

Inside the materials are good enough, the seats could be better. The stereo (7000) is very powerful.

The fifth gear is too long and acceleration is just enough. The 1.6 Zetec is very good, but the shifts are too long.

Sorry for my English!!!

Your real speed wasn't 210 km/h at higher speeds all cars tend to misjudge their speed (showing higher speed than it realy is)
