1997 Ford Mondeo LX review from UK and Ireland
"The ultimate"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Virtually nothing. Given that the car has now covered close to 150,000 miles, the reliability has been nothing short of stunning. Apart from regular servicing, I have only had to replace the Battery and the spark Plug leads in two and a half years of ownership. I think that the clutch will go soon though, which will probably be expensive.
General comments?
A fantastic, albeit dull car. Handles well, with good performance. It is also very comfortable on long journeys, with excellent boot space. I really can't fault this car in any way, apart from the fact that it lacks charisma. I would happily have another, and at some point almost certainly will!
