General Comments:

I have only had this car a few months, but I am very impressed with pretty much every aspect of this car.

It is a very fast car (140, on a private road of course!!!).

I love this car! It's got every toy you could need (and some you don't), it's incredibly comfortable, roomy, reasonably economical if driven sedately, and it's just really easy to drive.

Torque steer can be a problem when driving enthusiastically, as can a touch of lift-off over-steer.

The car doesn't handle badly, but could do with less body roll. Am going to cure this with lower, stiffer springs.

I paid £1600 for this car with 116,000 miles on the clock. it was in near perfect condition and had been well looked after.

As a second-hand buy, I couldn't fault it.

Faults:

The car has an intermittent fault. It will lose power and stall. When you turn it off and back on again it will clear itself. This has now got to the stage where it will die after a few minutes and won't even re fire for a while after now.

The passenger foot well fills up with water in heavy rain. (good for a portable fish tank)

The windows all fog up and won't clear. (you end up driving like Ace Ventura with your head out the window)

General Comments:

Apart from that lot it's a good motor.

Faults:

Nothing as yet!

General Comments:

The car is nice and responsive. It is very smooth and a really nice drive.

Faults:

The steering pulls to the right when braking.

This car 'Clunks' and groans when full-lock is applied to the steering.

Acceleration is sluggish and jerky.

Alarm goes off for no apparent reason.

General Comments:

Too much plastic!

If you like the sound of creaking and rattling then this car is for you.

This car handles like an overweight rhinoceros with an aversion to speed!

However, there is plenty of legroom and acres of space in the boot.

Faults:

On board computer no longer visible 50,000 miles.

Air conditioning intake causes rainwater to fill the passenger side foot well, this is a common fault that you can easily fix yourself with any rubber based sealant.

The petrol/water mixer broke 58,000 miles.

The rubber seals around the doors and windows have just started to let in water 68,000 miles.

General Comments:

After two bad Fords I always said I would never buy another one, however this one sort of fell into my lap and I'm sort of glad it did.

The heated seats are brilliant in the winter especially if you like driving with the window open or if you suffer from a bad back.

The performance is pretty good for what is at the end of the day a family car, realistically its to heavy to ever be rocket like, but it does "go " abit when you want to.

Lots and lots of extras in this car most of which you never use, like, cruise control, the roads are just to congested, but as I look around now for another car I look around and find one I like and so far spec wise nothing comes near this Ghia x.
