1994 Ford Mondeo LX review from UK and Ireland
"Good hold-all for the family and a comfy motorway cruiser"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rattle from the rear hatch.
The alarm started going off by itself once a week at first and now every couple of days. Twice today <g>.
Motorway driving: Every 4-500 miles there's a momentary blip as though a single beat has been missed. The fault's been with the car since new apparently and the previous owner made many unsuccessful attempts to get it fixed.
General comments?
Generally a good motorway car and an acceptably good town car.
The auto performance is nippy enough for me and it just bowls along at 80-85mph.
For bad or good, it's a rep's car. Penholders in all the right places. Storage right to hand for coins etc.
