1997 Ford Mondeo LX review from UK and Ireland
"Ultimate rep car, never a chance of exclusivity"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing.
General comments?
The car is bland and rather basic. It does the job though. Interior is cheap, plasticky and the whole car lacks style.
It handles well, but has a 'rep' image.
No air-con, rear headrests, electric mirrors or even ABS brakes.
Wing-mirrors are too small, but its very comfortable if gloomy inside.
We bought it because of the low mileage, despite the negative bits it is highly competent if rather overrated at the time of launch.
