One of my Fords was a '74 Mustang II. I've reported before that its German engine was one of the worst I've ever seen - thirty-five tiny 7mm bolts needed to be taken out and the whole front of the engine removed just to replace the water pump? My '65 Chevy panel truck had four 1/2" bolts on the fan and four more on the pump itself, and the new one was in in fifteen minutes.
My last car before this one was a '94 Ford Escort wagon, and I loved it. Its engine was Japanese, I think, but I'm not sure. If it was German then I praise it. They replaced the Escort with the Focus and it's easily the better car, but I've never been able to get around how very ugly it is.
