What vehicle, like an '02 model, is closest replacement for a Tour? With 160,000 miles and 8+ years, my '96 is vulnerable but I can't find anything that feels like it.
Bought a Crown Vic...terrible seat. Tried an EB Explorer V6 this weekend...fuel milage was worse than my 5.4 Expy. It got 14.3 highway with cruise, plus it is noisy.
Is there a '00 pampered, leather, power-seat, low-milage Tour in existence anywhere?
Thanks.
Dean

Well I always though that the Audi A4 is the closes shape and style to ours but they dont really have the same power as a CSVT though. They only got 1.8 litre engine. Just my thoughts.

A friend has one, though I think her's says 2.0 on the back. I don't really like the car. Doors although not very large feel heavy, and couple others things I didn't like. But I've ridden in another girl's audi, a vert, and I think it was an A4 as well but it was completely different and I liked it.
