1996 Ford Scorpio Ultima review from UK and Ireland
"Excellent if looked after"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Starter Motor seized one week after I had bought the car. Changed the alternator because the battery light stayed on all the time, but then was told that it was an electrical fault. When it rains water leaks into the electrics and sets the car alarm off at 4am (really annoying), a pipe had burst so the engine kept over heating.
General comments?
This car is a good luxurious, motorway cruiser, but it drinks too much petrol, its very comfortable too. Good buy if you have full service history and previous owner had kept it well.
