Decent Looking/Lousy Reliability

I purchased this car in 2000 with 18K miles on it. At 50K I had to replace the Fuel Pump, Gas Tank as well as a couple misc. parts. At 80K I had to replace the Fuel Pump again... at a cost of almost $500.00 each. At 100K I had to replace the Serpantine belt because it was shredded. This car looks good, has zero power, but decent gas mileage. Frankly, I can't wait to get rid of it.

At first it was a good deal. Low mileage, good price, the previous owner had kept up on all the scheduled maintenance. Six months later my timing belt blew out on the highway (yes, blew out) with about 55,000 miles on the car. Then power steering fluid began leaking and actually rotted out the sway bar bushings. So far I've spent nearly one third of what I originally paid for the car to have it repaired. Be careful!
tough little car

I have a 99 mystique and it is probably the best car i have ever had. 130k miles. I bought it with 80k for 2,250 in 2009 its 2013 now and its still running strong. the only problems I have had was my alternator went out and its very hard to get to. my battery died about a month ago, my starter and o2 sensor is starting to go bad but things like that are expected. The only things i have a problem with is my front windows and sunroof don't work my brake light is out and blinkers are out. I've had car for about 4 yrs so $500 a yrs plus about $1k of repairs im very happy and will probably get another 1.
well, it WAS good UNTIL ......

This car was absolutely perfect when my dad gave it to me in 2000 for my 16th birthday. Everything ran great, and it handled well, since i love to fly (my next car is a BMW) and it looked nice too. Since i hit 100k, the check engine light has come on twice, the transmission is going, and the car randomly cuts off. I did every scheduled maintence item on this vehicle and now it is falling apart! it is such a shame, because the car is so comfortable and extremely roomy. i guess that is what i get for having ford manufactured parts, because yes, even though it is a mercury, that is a FORD engine!!
