► Summary
Scorpio served as a model of Ford's flagship. The large family limousine is valued primarily for its spacious interior, comfort and rich equipment. The car, however, did not achieve much success. The reason may be a considerable appetite for fuel of not very modern engines.
Good driveability. Undercarriage deficiencies High fuel consumption (V6)
