1986 Merkur XR4Ti review from North America
"Fast car, but needs overall improvement in every thing and needs to be taken care of right!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine cooling system is horrible resulting in constant overheating.
Turbo really dirty and in need of a good cleaning or replacement.
Interior wornout.
Weather-stripping Leaks.
Shifting rough.
Bad quality paint.
A/C/ peice of crap.
General comments?
Fast car.
Good if you're a mechanic and you want a fast cool car that can haul ass when you tweak it right and that gets peoples attention.
Radio still worked well.
Gan be made very comfortable.
European design and feel.
