Replaced the power steering pump twice as well as the power steering rack. Not Cheap!
Daytime running lights switch has blown twice resulting in loss of daylight running lights.
Hubcaps lose the grey colour and fade to yellow.
Stereo/climate control unit has cracked twice. No lose in controls just looks really bad.
Headlights are yellowing badly even after using the compound to reduce the discolouring.
When the steering system is functioning properly is handles very well for a vehicle of this size.
It is comfortable enough, but the non-powered seats make it difficult to get a good driving position.
The styling in controvesial; not my favour, but the price was right when the lease on my Escort was up so I took it regardless.
Generally a nice car ; has never my family or I stranded no matter what, even with the main belt shredded off it managed to go for another 55kms to our house.
Not a bad review, I'm assuming this car was often parked in the sun or was driven in a salty area.
