  • What will I do when its gone? - 1991 Ford Escort
    By -

    Im the OEM buyer of this car and its been great. The mileage, the performance and just the sheer fun of the vehicle. I can stash any of my bicycles into the back (including my recumbent) and the only time its ever been towed is when the missus parked it badly. The biggest improvement I made was to replace the sport Eagle GT+4 tires with touring tires and replacing the OEM struts with gas charged struts.

  • The most reliable car ever made. - 1991 Ford Escort
    By -

    I have had my escort for almost 2 years now and it is the best purchase I ever made. It only cost me $1400 to buy and I have only had to replace 1 tire for $35. So far it has averaged out to less than $70 a month for the time Ive had it. I dont have any doubt it will last me for well over another year. I plan on driving it until it breaks down, I may drive it for another 5 years. If anyone is planning on buying one I strongly recomned it.

    This car has been through thick and thin with me. Never had a major problem. It is pushing 200,000 miles and will be with it until it dies!

    Great car ! If your looking for power and performance look elsewhere (obviously) But if you just need a reliable car that wont cost much at all to maintain and is absolutly amazing on gas, this is a great car to own.

    I bought this car in 95 and have only replaced the tires. Now that I have a 198,000 miles on it without problems...I cant convience myself replace the car for a new one. Problem area: Rust and holes in the hatch which brings in the exhaust gas into the cabin. Summay: Very good car

  • Great Small Car - 1991 Ford Escort
    By -

    I have owned a 1991 Honda Civic Dx with auto transmission. I am comparing that with my 1991 Ford Escort Gt Model.One thing that I like is the great gas milleage I get on it. In the city I average about 20 Miles a gallon and I live in NYC, lots of traffic. I like the suspension which makes the ride rigid but rather sporty. The car is equiped with a 1.8 L engine dual cam. It has 128 HP which makes it quite faster than the Civic. Even a brand new civic doesnt have as much power as my GT. Well, I purchased the car in Good shape, I only did minor tune up on it. I strongly recomend buying the GT.

  • Great Starter car - 1991 Ford Escort
    By -

    This is a good car for commuters and an excellent starter car. Based on the MAZDA 323, most of the components are Made in Japan.

  • I love this car - 1991 Ford Escort
    By -

    My sister bought this car for 4 years ago and right now she gave to me. I really love this car especially her engine!!! although she is kinda old and her exterior is out of date. The color is peeling. Overall, Im satisfied with this style :)

  • Little Wagon for Grown ups! - 1991 Ford Escort
    By -

    Ok. So its a little long in the tooth. Its a great hauler of all kinds of things and a great arround town car with great milage (and with the price of gas thats a real plus!). Hard to get this much wagon for so little.

  • Affordable, Reliable, Fun - 1991 Ford Escort
    By -

    I bought my 91 Escort in 1996 with about 27,000 miles. Now I have almost 100,000 miles on it, and I have had very few problems with this car, only general maintenance (brakes, belts, etc.) The vehicle still runs great, and the body has held up wonderfully, no rust at all! Also, it has pretty good power for a small economy car if you opt for the 5 speed, and it has very tight handling. It gets around great in the winter and is good on gas, too. I would definitely recommend this car.
