This car is a very reliable car if it hasn't been overheated, if they keep mentioning the water pump I would be scared, that is how they usually get overheated is when the pump fails. The engine in the car should make 200,000 if is hasn't been abused or damaged, the transmission unfortunately will probably not go so far and they cost as much as the car is worth.

The water pump is not that hard to change on a 3.0 however the 3.8 might be a little difficult If you can get it for cheep go for it , You can always learn to work on them the Internet is full of instructions, hope this helps

Here's a link to problems Taurus owners have been submitting to a car repair forum. Might give you an idea of what you might be up against.
