Ha, good luck with the repair costs. These are European Ford Mondeo's. They have all european parts and are a pain in the butt to repair. I bought one with 87k miles on it and it was ragged to death. After fixing all the broken stuff, I still had to deal with constant CEL's and the final straw was the ABS unit just STOPPED ALLOWING FLUID to the brakes. By the time I got home, my rotors were glowing and steaming.

Fun cars, not cheap to drive and I never got over 26 and I drove all highway at 60mph....

Mine was beat to shit when I got it but I repaired a lot of stuff. Just avoid the 98's (like mine was) cause they have bad wiring harnesses. Mine really would get 30+ on the highway but maybe cause that was flat ass Florida roads... I think they are cool looking none the less.

Saw a TSI at a Hot Rod power tour that had a GN motor in it, looked like it was factory installed. Saw another that had a Supra engine in it. Badass cars with swaps.
