    Reliability

    1 out of 5 1.0

    We're talking bumper falling off for no reason, door Locks going (the famous Mondeo passenger door driver's side + drivers interior door handle mechanism), double Lock mechanism breaks. Many, many electrical faults - windows etc.

    With the bumper falling off these cars are an absolute embarrasment. Second-hand they are cheap but for a reason - you have been warned!

    Comfort
