1985 Merkur XR4Ti review from North America
"Nice high performance deal"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had the turbo rebuilt as well as the ignition module and timing.
General comments?
This car is reliable, powerful and quick in a nice package of luxury and comfort. A navigation computer that rivals those of the modern cars.
