I'm in the market for a used car here in Ontario, Canada. I stumbled across a Ford Contour SE (sorry not too familiar with the models but it's the top of the range 2.5 24V). It seemed to be in reasonable condition; a test drive didn't turn up any problems. The bodywork had a few small areas that looked to be the beginnings of rust. Mostly around window sills I think. The interior looked to be ok too; nothing too wrong there.
The price has just been dropped and the mileage is about 95,000km. I was tempted but I just couldn't decide if it was a safe buy. I'm fairly sure the 1 owner from new is a true history. I want a car that I can run for 2 to three years.
Thoughts appreciated. Thanks
