1995 Ford Mondeo Aspen review from UK and Ireland
"Worst car ever driven by me"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Automatic Left Hand Steering (the car pulled to the left at speeds between 5 and 40mph).
Power steering pump failed.
General comments?
I owned a Mercedes 190E 2.0l when I had a crash, I needed a cheap car until the insurance was sorting out my 190 so I went out and buy a Ford Mondeo. This was the biggest mistake of my life so far.
The car was doing 0 to 60 in about 20 seconds, and the 100 mph was never reachibile.
The road noise was was too loud in the cabin.
The boot lead (rear door) was rattling way too much.
The ride quality was the worst I ever experienced, in the corners could not go faster than 10 mph as the car feels that was breaking apart.
Finally I am happy that I own another 190E and got rid of it.
Hope this review is not too hash for others Mondeo Aspen owners, and of course not all Mondeo's are the same.
