  • 13 Years and only two repairs - 1991 Ford Escort
    By -

    Ive had my Escort GT for 13 years! I bought it brand new in 1990, have put 160,000 miles on it, and in all that time, Ive had only two repairs. One $98 ignition switch and one oil leak (recent) for $300. Less than $400 in 13 years ... not bad. Ive taken good care, of course, with oil changes and all scheduled maintenance, but its still got umph when I need it and the most comfortable seats Ive ever found. Huge trunk and room in back seat are bonus, too.

    I bought this with 120,000 mi. as a second car for long work commuting. So far it runs great and from what the previous owner told me, it always has. Has nice styling and looks more aggressive than your average Honda Civic.

    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.

  • 2nd gen Escort GTs RULE! - 1991 Ford Escort
    By -

    Aquired car 1/99 and average 25,000 miles annually. By the end of 03 it will have 200,000 on. ALL ORIGINAL except air filter, belts and water pump. Still has original plugs, wires, sensors etc. Thought about replacing them, but averaging 35 mpg (and 40.8 on trips) I ask myself...WHY? This car sees mostly highway miles, and occassionally the local drag strip.

  • minor problem, great car - 1991 Ford Escort

    I have been through a lot with this car. I just love it. I have had it for years before i bought it. my dad bought it in 95 for $2000. In 98 we had to buy a new tranny, and when 2003 came around we had already gone through 3 alternators... ive learned how to fix alternators, and im glad i did.

    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
