1995 Ford Probe review from UK and Ireland
"A sheep in wolf's clothing which wants to scare the other sheep"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not much, immobiliser problem was the biggy. Also metal for one of the wings has degraded faster than it should have.
General comments?
Nice car, looks gorgeous but the 2.0L is underpowered for the size and bulk of the car.
Handling is fantastic, it just seems to stick to the road.
Underestimated car which hasn't been given a fair go in the UK. Ford should have brought out a mk2 which addressed the niggling little problems.
Obviously 2.0L is cheaper to run than 2.5L but don't expect the running costs to be cheap.
