The one problem about living in the salt belt is cars rust. My Wife's 91 Honda Civic has just gotten to much to keep up with, the muffler fell off recently (Still quieter then the Tuner down the road ) The motor is still solid, can't kill a honda motor.Today I put down a deposit on a 99 Ford Contour Sports Edition. Very nice car clean and solid with a V6 under the hood. OMG, I JUST BOUGHT A FORD!!! The dealer is a friend so he took $1000 of the selling price and is holding it until IRS pays. (E-File is nice.) Will have pic when we pick it up. |

Civics really aren't very loud after you take the muffler's off for some reason. Mine isn't till you really start revving it up, and even then... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PClXDb6ob7U |

well we picked her up last night. Runs nice just one minor problem will need to get fixed, the transmission cooler line has a small hole and needs to be replaced...under warranty. The girls named her Sue. And yes we name all our cars, less embarassing when yelling at them in a parking lot... .BTW I live in New England and this is not normally how the ground looks this time of the year ![]() ![]() ![]()

ebay is probably the best place. if you are after one to customise i would recomend the minichamps 1/43 ford mondeo mk2 as both the mb one and majorette ones are mk1's and youres is closer to a mk2 looks a nice car that |
