1989 Mercury Colony Park review from North America
"Splendid boat"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Motor and transmission both made noises and were replaced at 90k.
General comments?
I love this car. Except the Buick it is the last big SW and I can fit four dogs (in crates) plus luggage and people in it, and travel comfortably to Canada for sheepdog trials.
It's a boat and I'm thinking of adding Crown Vic police stuff so it handles bettetr, but if you're cruising down the Intersate at 70-75 with the A/C working and the stereo playing and you've four dogs in the back, who can whimper?
