1995 Mercury Cougar XR7 review from North America
"A high performance bargain, as well as Luxurious!! Excellent combination!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Overall, I have encountered very few cons of this vehicle. However, there is a very small crack in the dash; on the passenger side below the airbag. It is approximately 1.3 cm. In length, you really have to look hard to see it.
That is really the only thing that is wrong with this vehicle.
Oh, the "Check Engine" light appears on all the time. When I accelerate it sputters very, very slightly most of the time it does not do that. I need to get a tune up on it and that should solve the conflict.
General comments?
I believe this is one of the best vehicles ever produced by Ford Motor Company. My cougar can shut down mustangs; brand-new off of the showroom floor! This car will go, I mean really go for being nine years old and all.
All the power options are still in working condition.
