In any case, the Contour seems pretty solid despite a few cosmetic fixes that they'll have to take care of before I hand over my down-payment. Just [censored] like broken mesh, only hi on the fan speed works, and some of the interior lights that are out. I'm having them check the alignment and all since that seems to be a common complaint. The most noticeable thing that was wrong with the car was the wiper lever that was snapped off of the steering column! One last thing I was a little surpirsed at was the fact that there was wiring from an old stereo system still fed into the trunk.




I can't believe someone would try to sell a car with these problems. I thought dealers "fixed up" cars before they sold them. That is why the prices are usually higher because of the overhead of restoring them.

That is strange. Oh well.
