1995 Ford Scorpio Executive Estate review from UK and Ireland
"Big, smooth and laid back"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air conditioning clutch bearing noisy.
Alternator light glowing (common problem with blown diodes in the alternator apparently)
Cruise Control has never worked.
Fluid pipes between auto transmission and oil cooler replaced due to corrosion.
Front disks need replacing.
Driver's door look worn.
General comments?
Very relaxing and surprisingly quick.
Thirsty around town, but not bad at all on the motorway.
Cheap to insure.
Other cars might be more 'fun', but this one is easy to live with whatever mood you're in.
