“I owned my explorer for 3 years and regreted selling...”

Written on: 27/03/2005 by simmy0ne (2 reviews written)

I owned my explorer for 3 years and regreted selling it for a Hyundai Santa Fe. The Hyundai is fine, but not a patch on the Ford. I have 2 kids and a dog. With the in-laws living 300 miles away comfort and performance was a big issue. With a roof box we actually ENJOYED travelling so much, we even bought a caravan, which the Explorer seemed to love towing. It had self adjusting suspension which sensed the load and leveled the jeep automaticaly. We also have a Mazda MX5 which is great fun to... (read more)

Written on: 21/08/2003 by lordjohnhoward (1 review written)

I purchased my xlt in March 2003. Since then have done nearly 9000 miles and without a hitch. Some of the motoring press slate the car saying things like, "its cheap inside" and "interior trim around gearbox moves" well if it didnt it would simply break!!!!. I and My wife love the explorer and would not be without it. (read more)

“The Performance and off road abilities of my Ford...”

Written on: 19/10/2001 by John Smith.

The Performance and off road abilities of my Ford Explorer go with its macho all-American styling. The car's very well-equipped. Gives 20 mpg if I'm lucky The costs of parts and servicing reasonable, but the depreciation was massive. My car has permanent four-wheel drive so it feels safe when driving. The self-leveling rear suspension works a treat, even though it's bouncy. The explorer is rather cumbersome to drive through town. The V6 engine packs a punch, although acceleration not...

Is this review copied almost word-for-word from Parkers or is it the other way around? http://www.parkers.co.uk/choosing/car_reviews/main_review.asp?model_id=383 !
