Escort IV

I've used this car for 6 years, both as a weekend classic and occasionally for daily drives. While I've invested a lot of money to bring it to showroom condition, it's one of the best cars I've ever owned. For such an old design, its reliability is truly impressive.

Pros: Excellent reliability for its age, Great classic weekend car, Can also be a reliable daily driver
Cons: Requires significant investment for restoration
