I just traded my 96 zetec in, they gave me $700 for it (I paid $2K 2 yrs ago this month). I had significant valve tap (sounded like an old diesel), same oil thru breather tube problem, every bushing on suspension was gone, tranny leaking, valve cover leaking, etc.
If you can believe me, I traded it in probly 100x better condition when I bought it. I know I sunk more than $3K into it just to keep it running. A lemon car will drain you pretty good and still just be on the verge of breaking down.
