2003 Ford Escort Zx2 on 2040-cars
Cambridge Springs, Pennsylvania, United States
I purchased this vehicle to use as a commuter car for the great gas mileage. Unfortunately the transmission started acting up and I went back to driving my other vehicle. I only got to put a few thousand of miles on the car and before the trans problems but it drove great and everything seemed nice and tight. I purchased the zx2 from the original owners knowing that it needed a head gasket. I had the head machined and new valve guides installed prior to replacing the head gasket. Before I started driving the car I replaced the front pass caliper and pads on both sides, 2 new front tires and I also bought 2 snow tires that come with the car. Also replaced were the rear shoes and the exhaust from catalytic converter back. I also put a new pioneer stereo that has a usb/ipod hookup with the proper harness.
Interior of the car is in excellent shape, there is a burn hole in the rear seat on the pass side. The rest of the interior shows little to no wear and still has a nice smell as I know the original owner was a non smoker. all the power accessories work as they should, power windows, power locks, power sunroof(no leaks), and the power mirrors. The engine ran great when I was driving it and I didn't have an issue with it at all, when the head gasket was done I also did a tune up plugs, wires, the fuel filter. I also had to have the engine re timed do the a failed vct solenoid and with the part and labor it ran me a little over 800 dollars and the ford dealer in Edinboro pa The transmission still moves the car, when placed in D it slips but engages normally in L, I'm not sure if it is a solenoid in the valve body or if it just needs replaced. once started out in low if you put the selector in D it shifts normally until you come to a stop then you have to do it all over again. The exterior of the car looks good, has a few minor dings and dents and a few scratches. It is also missing the door molding on the drivers door. There are a few surface rust spots but nothing that is through the metal, the undercarriage has some corrosion but is still nice and solid I hate to let it go but with already having a car and a new baby now my priorities have changed and its time to move on. The zx2 is sold as is/where is. It is up to the buyer to pick up or make arrangements for shipping, I am happy to help load the vehicle as I wouldn't drive it not knowing when the transmission is going to completely go out. Buyer is responsible for title transfer fees The reserve price is not much more than scrap. |

Ford Figo concept unveiled in India
Mon, 03 Feb 2014Ford has officially unveiled the Figo Concept at the 2014 Auto Expo in New Delhi. While it may wear a concept badge, we'd argue this little sedan, which is under 12 feet long, looks ready to replace the current Figo and do battle with other B-segment cars in the world's emerging markets.
"With the Figo Concept, we are showing that choosing a compact sedan does not mean compromising on premium design or smart solutions," said Kumar Galhotra, Ford's VP of engineering, global product development. That premium design includes Ford's familial, trapezoidal grille and Fusion-esque headlights in front, while the rear end reminds us of the last-generation Focus Coupe. While that car wasn't exactly attractive, the chopped off tail looks pretty nice on this smaller car. And if you really don't like the looks of the Figo Concept, just remember - it looks better than the current production model. Aerodynamically, the Figo's shape is quite slippery, which means reduced wind noise and improved fuel economy.
As for the "smart solutions" touted by Galhotra, the narrow confines of Indian streets make driving even the tiniest cars a challenge. To give the Figo Concept a one-up on the competition, Ford has fitted power-folding mirrors that sport a "flexible architecture," which should stand up well to bumps from cars, people or bikes. We don't have any interior images, but Ford is promising a large cabin, that includes a dock that can accommodate a phone or MP3 player, allowing either to be controlled through the car.
