1999 Contour SE Sport

Age: 6 years

Mileage: 29K

Avg Mileage: Less than 5K per year

I bought the car in August of 2002 with just under 12K on it. In 2.66 years, the car has only had an additional 17K put on it, and almost of those miles are highway miles.

However, I've had to replace a lot of things on the car, despite its low mileage. So far I've replaced the tires, struts, strut bearings, exhaust from the back of the cat the the rear of the car, the stereo (it went bad), all 4 speakers (they blew out), the antenna, and had the car in the shop several times for loose electrical connections. Funny thing is that this stuff all went within 5k after I bought it. Ever since 9 months after owning the car, it has never had one other thing go wrong with it.

Current Mileage: 125,584 mi.

Age of Car: 7 yrs.

Average Annual Mileage: 17,940.57 mi.

BUT, the car was purchased Nov. of 2002 with 77,500 which means my actual math would go:

125,584 - 77,500 = 48084.00 in 26 months

48084.00/26 = 1849.38 miles per month

48084.00/2 = 24042.00 miles per year

My current mileage is about 320,000 Kilometres -about 200,000 miles, and I average about 50,000 Kilometres - about 31,000 miles per year. Give or take.

I purchased the car new in 1999, it is an early 1998 and sat on the dealers lot for a before I bought it.

Still love the car.
