Depends on the condition of the car, but if the car still runs OK and doesn't need any immediate work (brakes and tires in good shape, no glaring problems), $800 is pretty cheap. Even if you only get a year out of the car, it'll have cost you less than $70/month. Not bad at all.

i'm going to commerce you or pay outright $600. this could be a large motor vehicle, in particular. i opt for to advise them surprisingly over maximum different American builds. in case you have the "24 valve" label on the fender, then you certainly must be a sprint greater careful with maintenance. This engine is all aluminum alloy. in case you have the three.0 liter engine, you're greater suitable off. This has a forged iron engine. Use Mobil One 0W-30 oil in the two one RELIGIOUSLY!!! set up a sequence of Bosch Fusion or Denso Iridium spark plugs. superb potential and financial gadget right here. additionally, the exhaust gadget, converter and O2 sensors will final longest. purely be advantageous you sparkling the throttle physique and the IAC valve often. this could sell a healthful idle and superb financial gadget in any respect decrease engine speeds. Ask in the experience that your trans replaced into ever serviced. Have the Ford broking try this job. They use unquestionably the precise fluid and the main suitable kit. My 1990 Taurus performed a amazing 29 MPG final week! the forged information is that those engines in no way choose a timing belt replace, because of the fact they have not got any!! The engine will possibly stay longer than the motor vehicle physique, so have your undercarriage checked for indicators of rust, and have it taken care of. The later sort Fords use 2-section galvanized steels, so the shell ought to final. Now that i think of roughly it, i'm going to offer you $800 for it!

If you have proof the timing belt was changed less than 60,000 miles ago (which how often they need to be changed) I'd go ahead and take a chance if it passes inspection. If it hasn't, subtract the roughly $300 cost of a new belt and water pump (they should be done since the belt has to be removed to get to the pump anyway).

Has twice as many miles as I'd expect on a 10 year old car. Now if you said $500 or less, and the tires were good, I might consider it.

It is ok, lots of miles, but maybe you can change the engine if the rest of the car is OK.
