1995 Ford Mondeo LX review from UK and Ireland
"Badly made, fast, dull and easy to hate"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Catalytic converter 4 TIMES!
Various engine faults.
Exhaust.
Drank huge amounts of oil and far more petrol than it should have needed to.
Paint was unbelievably soft (car wash a big no-no!)
General comments?
Horrible. OK, so it wasn't looked after very well before we had it, but it was still unreliable, uncomfortable and easy to lose in the car park. Went like a bomb and great for the motorway, but little else.
Dealer was useless and "forgot" to do anything to it when it went in for repairs once.
Cabin is like an aircraft cockpit with that dashboard and back end is too bouncy for back-seat passengers.
