1986 Mercury Cougar review from North America
"A Good Old Car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
When I first got the car, the oil light flickered a lot.
Turns out previous owner had the oil overfilled. I had the oil changed and the oil light has went and stayed off.
Nothing else has went wrong.
General comments?
This car is great for it being 20 years old. The interior is in good shape and so is the body.
It has a digital odometer that says it has 79,000 miles. Seems low for a 20 year old car; not sure if it is accurate, but it does work.
It's reliable, has not left me stranded yet.
I think Mercury makes great vehicles.
This car is much better than I expected, considering its age.
