1999 Ford Windstar

Pros: Holds eight easily, plenty of comfort and style

Cons: no ashtrays in the rear

The Bottom Line: A very comfortable ride with lots of style. It's really is hard to believe you aren't riding in a luxury car

Review: I've had my Ford Windstar for about six months now and love it. I still have to remind myself that it's a van and not a car because it rides and drives so smooth. The two bucket seats in the front have arm rests and the two back bench seats do also...

Pros: Safety & Comfort

Cons: None

Review: A big selling point of the Ford Windstar LX for me was that he it had sliding doors on both sides. Wow what a convenience of having two sliding doors, allows for easier access of stuffing kids and bulky packages. The seats fold down or can be removed to...

Pros: Great crash-test ratings, nice handling, full of features

Cons: Gas mileage isn't great, stereo sound could be improved

Review: We have been driving our 1999 Windstar SEL for nine months now. We had previously owned a Dodge Grand Caravan ES, so I was anxious to compare the two.

The reason we chose the Windstar was for its excellent frontal crash test ratings. We...

Pros: This is a FANTASTIC vehicle, a pleasure to drive, and is flawless

Cons: None

The Bottom Line: If you want a roomy, stylish, reliable van that would easily travel around the globe, this is the perfect car

Review: In 1993 we bought a brand new Mercury Villager, which I loved for over 122,000 miles. Toward the end of its life with me there were some small problems (the rear air stopped working, the half-shafts were worn out) but I always said I would gladly buy...

Pros: Comfortable, drives great, safe

Cons: none that I've noticed

Review: Late in the summer of 1999, my husband and daughter were in an accident that left our 1993 Chevrolet Lumina minivan totaled. We spent the next month searching for a replacement. When buying a new vehicle, my husband and I have different priorities. My...

Pros: spacious, comfortable, quiet, parkable in downtown Europe, real family limo

Cons: 3.8 lts engine not available in Netherlands, no climate control, seats difficult to remove

The Bottom Line: If you have a family with kids, this is your second home. In Europe its is also seen as a comfortable business van.

Review: I live in the Netherlands Europe and bought a new Ford Windstar SEL, which comes (unfortunately) with a 3.0 ltr engine in the Netherlands only. We, a family of 6, like to go on holidays on long trips like driving to Spain or Southern France, occasionally...

Pros: COMFY, COZY, AND VERY MUCH A FAMILY VAN!

Cons: What's with all these useless gadgets?

The Bottom Line: Great Van, especially for families. Roomy, comfy, and cozy. Quiet Ride!

Review: My husband and I decided to buy in a family van, since our 87 custom van seemed to be on its last wheel. I started looking on the Internet with Cars.com. Which lead me to a Kentucky dealership that had some pretty good deals. My husband I made a trip...

Pros: Comfort. Leg room. Split Stereo system.

Cons: Too many useless cupholders. Complicated computer system. Too many beeps to remind you of things!

Review: My Windstar .... MY WINDSTAR! Can you believe I didn't even WANT a minivan? I couldn't STAND the stereotypical idea that everyone who drove a van was a married, nursing mother, who had nothing better to do with her life than haul around at LEAST a dozen...

Pros: The whole Van!

Cons: No handle on the rear

Review: We bought the Windstar after a year of a small car with a baby. And after checking out different makes and models, we always came back to the Windstar with better facts. I love the fact it has the Automatic Sliding doors, and very comfortable to ride...

Pros: Safe, comfortable, easy to drive

Cons: back seats are heavy to move, but move easily

Review: After deciding that a family of 4 just wasn't going to fit into a Thunderbird anymore, we went minivan shopping. We tested every American made minivan available and happily decided on the Windstar. I am extremely pleased with our purchase! It looks...
