1996 Ford Mondeo Ghia review from UK and Ireland
"Big, comfortable, reliable yet staid car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had to have the air conditioning serviced some years ago - not too expensive.
Never had any major faults with it - other than starter motor, battery - just wear and tear really. (Speed bumps take their toll on the suspension joints etc)
General comments?
Very comfortable ride, can find speed creeping up on the motorway with little deterioration of comfort.
Plenty of room in the boot - with rear seats folded down there is some serious space in there. Also plenty of leg room for rear passengers.
The size of it makes it difficult to park at times; despite having power steering, it's still awkward to manouvre into tight spaces - The boot is such that you can't tell how close to the car behind you are.
