1997 Ford Contour GL review from North America
"This car is very peppy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had nothing but great luck with this car. I have only had the car stall once on a 98 degree day. This was due to the fact that I had the air conditioning on and I was in park for several minutes.
General comments?
The Ford Contour has the worlds crappiest cup holders in the world. They are very cheap and don't hold very much.
This car is a major step up from my last one, and is the most luxurious car I have owned.
