Used Ford Contour for Sale

This was nice car. The vehicle performed well. The quality was good. It had quality parts.

I generally like the way that the car performs and looks. It is a four door vehicle and while not super sporty it has a fashionable enough design and includes a spoiler on the Lx model (which I own). I have put about a hundred thousand miles on it and it may show, but the car keeps on running. It is at about one hundred and seventy thousand miles now and does kind of clunk around, but that is to be expected for an older vehicle. It gets pretty good gas mileage, but could be a little better. One serious complaint that I have about the car is the upkeep on the shocks and struts. This car seemingly destroys the things faster than any other car I have owned; for that matter people I have asked have also said that I buy the things a lot more than they do. However, this cost has been evened out by the use I have gotten from the car and the low cost of the vehicle. If I had to buy it again I would, but I might try to get a slightly better deal up front to cut costs later. I'd put it in the category of good starter vehicles or good cars for a teenager.

For the most part, my Ford Contour has been a very dependable car. It did not have all the power I would have liked, but I knew that when I bought it because it is a four-cylinder model. The ride is fairly comfortable for a less expensive model. I always was impressed with the instrument panel, and it came with features that have continued working throughout the life of the car. For example, the cruise control is still working. The gas mileage is another reason I like the car. Throughout the years, the engine has performed well. One problem I've had with the car is a computer module has gone out twice, and it is expensive to replace. At around 100,000 miles, I had to replace the fuel pump, but that is to be expected in most cars eventually.
