Advantages: It was nice having a new car

Disadvantages: Poor acceloration, poor quality, expensive to service

The worst Car i have ever had, that might sound a bit over the top but to be honest i bought a Escort Encore from Brand new, from coming out of the showroom and for the 18 months of pure trouble with this Car.
Dont get me wrong Ford responded to all my complaints and they took the car back on numerous occasions, but you do not spend your hard earned money on a car that you have to return every 2 weeks. The last straw was a problem with the acceleration, going over the snake pass towards Sheffield, i was worried a milk float might over take me the acceleration was so poor.

The fuel consumption was poor, the car was uncomfortable, the handling was poor, the cd was replaced 3 times in 18months the tyres were worn due to the tracking and the servicing cost me more money than i would like to remind myself.
Maybe i just had a bad one out of the bunch but someone had to have it, in this case is was me.
If you are thinking of buying one test drive it up a hill and see what you think


Thanks for reading
