1996 Mercury Mystique LX review from North America
"Mercury Mistake.."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
What hasn't gone wrong?
The "Check Engine" light is on every other day. Repairs in the past two months have included a new battery (142,50 CDN, a special make), an oxygen sensor, a cold sensor, and a leaking vacuum hose.
The pricey Mazda engine increases the cost of the repairs.
There is NO backseat room, at all.
General comments?
This car has great acceleration and handling, however the only place you will be driving to is the mechanic!
