Full Review

Hi guys, I bought a second hand FORD IKON 1.6 ZXi 2004 model in June 2007. When I bought the car it was showing 68000KMS. I’ve traveled in it for around 10000 KMS till date. Here are my genuine reviews about the car, the performance and above all the reviews about the dealer.

“Dream Machine” are the two words that I can say for IKON as a car. Although this car is not effective in terms of average, however, if you are concerned about the speed and the power then it’s the best. Even at 150 KM/Hr it runs as if you are driving a Maruti Zen at 80. If we take average aside, I would rate this car 3.5 out of 5.

I would not recommend South City Ford in New Delhi at all to any FORD owners to go there and have their car services. They are having the worst services which I’ve seen till date. I would not rate even .5 out 5 to South City Ford. I wish somebody can tell them about this.

I bought a 2nd hand Ikon NXt ZXi. It had done 66000 Kms but in excellent condition. Did 176 Kmph on Mumbai Pune exp way...it truly is a beautiful beast...U can feel the power surge in the car and the adrenaline surge in your body..!!

I have a 1.6Zxi,runs on both gas and petrol.I have driven around 48000 km in my vehicle and till date didn't find any problem.I have driven almost any vehicle on the road,but bet me the response of the engine is what makes it stand apart.Probably that is it's drawback that it's so swift in response that if you are not well used to it you are prone to have accidents.Touches 130 without vibration on gas,didn't tried for more.Yes Ikon is not confirmed to many safety standards beauty and the beas

hi guys, u know something its just a great feeling of speed when u have ikon 1.6 nxt. its just a power and speed demon. i have a dual fuel in my car tht mean it runs on gas and petrol.It was heard in the market that LPG kit doesnot fit in IKON and it gives problems,but its all wrong it smoothly flys on the road touching 120kmh on gas wthout even making you feel that its running in alternate fuel.it has 1.6nxt rocam engine,black color body, stickering done to give more punch.OZ wheels.
