I miss my 98 Mystique Zetec and wish I never traded it in my for my 95 Contour Duratec. The Mystique was the best car I've ever had. Never had any problems with it,beautiful car inside and out,but I hated the automatic and the poor gas milage which is why I ended up getting rid of it,but looking back,the car really was too nice to let go.

The Duratec I ended up buying was the worst car I've had to date. It spent more time in the shop than it did on the road. I was the 2nd owner too. Awesome car to drive,but man,I will never,ever go back to a Duratec even if my life depended on it.

I currently drive a '95 Contour Zetec MTX,which is the same year and colour as my old Duratec. This car is wicked. I bought it in November last year and just pulled it out of storage this spring and it's my DD while I work on my truck. This car was written off in '97 and rebuilt,and when I bought it from the dealer,the previous owner had a dog and I swear the dog must have exploded or something,because there was/is dog hair EVERYWHERE and the interior was just a general mess. It's cleaned up a bit now,and the car itself is pretty clean for it's age and milage (11 years and almost 266 000km). Fun car to drive,incredible on gas and I think this car will be a keeper for a little while.

I don't know what it is about Contiques,but I love them.

Personally, the only color SVT I'd buy if it had a midnight blue interior is a Silver Frost. Sorry to be a hater, but the MB just looks bad to me. It positively clashes with the T-red and black. For those colors, I would require either the tan or grey interior.

here here, I missed my contour the day it was sold.




i often think of how much i will miss my car after i sell it. I think that's the main reason it hasn't been sold just yet.

I just drive it today after about a month of it not running (long story). All my problems have been fixed, and I had my cousin take me to the shop and follow me home, and the first words out of my mouth when i got out of that car were : "Damn i love that car!"

I don't know if it's time to move on yet. Come december my ne winsurance policy will start, and i can start making serious moves.
