1988 Ford Mustang LX 5.0HO review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch sensor switch broke down at 120K.
Air conditioning gas should be replaced.
Still a reliable car even after 10 years of running, often in severe conditions.
General comments?
A truly brutal and powerful car. The ride is truly impressive: the howling sound of the engine, the torque pushing you in the seat making your breathing difficult, and the killer looks. A must buy if you live in North America, where fuel is cheap (this car burns up about 18 litres/100km). The tradition is still alive
