1988 Merkur XR4Ti Sedan review from North America
"Best car I have ever owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not much has gone wrong with this car.
Door handle broke.
Spotting of rust, but it's an 88.
Starter went out at 42000 miles.
General comments?
This car rocks. I have had it to 130 MPH on corners and straight aways. It handles excellent, love the car. That 2.7 turbo 4 banger from the Mustangs rocks - always has, always will.
