1996 Ford Scorpio Ultima review from UK and Ireland
"Fantastic value, very underrated"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear wheel bearing failed shortly after purchase - £30 DIY fix.
Changed all 4 discs and pads shortly after purchase - £80 DIY fix.
General comments?
Very well equipped, climate control, full leather, electric seats, traction control, 6-CD changer etc...
Superbly comfortable and spacious.
Good performance for the size of vehicle, handles very nicely and reasonable fuel economy at 24.5 mpg - better than the 18mpg I used to get from my precious car - 2.9i Granada Scorpio Estate.
