That's also what I'm reading. Owners are saying it's the big things like the engine and transmission going, but it's a lot of little things that just start to add up.

just look at an SVT Contour for a similar comparison. And there are a number of places that provide discount european parts for items shared across a range of cars, like water pumps.
http://www.eeuroparts.com is one.
