Basic Car, no air conditioning, has 5-speed. Bought it in 1998 with 32000km on it to haul my kids everywhere..lol. For 14 year through Ontario/Alberta Winters to driving across Canada twice packed to the gills with packed moving boxes.. this little car never ever let me down...Religiously did the oil change every 5000km, only major repair was a ball joint..Absolutely fantastic car...I just sold it in 2013 with 280km on it to a student driving back & forth to school. Now I gotta find another car that will last me as long with the great perfomance I got from my Escort
