Ford Escort 16V ZETEC

If you're looking for an affordable used family hatchback, it's impossible to ignore Ford's Escort. There are, after all, literally thousands from which you can choose. Find a good one and you've got yourself a good buy. But how to go about it - that's the question... Here, we'll be considering the merits of the newest fourth generation-shape model, which had two beauty make-overs during its lifetime, following an original launch in 1990. The most significant was at the beginning of 1995. Buying the most recent example you can afford is a statement that applies to every used car purchase. However, it's particularly applicable to the Escort. A 1990 car is budget A to B transport; no more. A post-1995 example, by contrast, is reasonably capable.
