1995 Ford Mondeo LX review from UK and Ireland
"Very, very average"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Radiator cooling pump collapsed at 130,000 miles, causing the timing belt to come off and the engine was damaged.
Windscreen wash pump failed at 132,000 miles.
Turbo failed at 135,000 miles.
Alternator failed at 140,000 miles.
Leak into the passenger foot-well.
General comments?
Seats are ridiculously unforgiving.
Awful to start in the winter.
Real axle seems to make a 'knocking' noise.
Sloppy handling.
