1988 Mercury Tracer Station Wagon review from North America
"This car is an excellent invention"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The engine went out at 205,012 miles.
The transmission went out at 208,000 miles.
General comments?
This has to be the best car I have ever owned.
I really didn't like Ford at first, but this car did change my mind.
I only paid $800 for it, but it didn't have any major problems until I hit the 205,000 miles mark.
I have owned it for 4 years and truly I didn't think it would last this long.
And it goes pretty fast to be a station wagon.
