1996 Ford Mondeo GLX review from UK and Ireland
"An absolutely fantastic machine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Central locking doesn't work.
Boot is difficult to shut (have to really slam it!)
Driver's door doesn't make contact with the light (door shut) switch.
I think there's something wrong with the catalytic converter.
I think I require new brake pads.
I had a leak on the passenger-side foot-well. When I inspected it, it was due to someone cross-threading the nuts on the pollen filter chamber. I fixed it by spacing the nut with rubber washers.
General comments?
I've modified my car slightly, but I've always been impressed with it's performance.
