YOU ARE BIDDING ON A VEHICLE IN USED/POOR CONDITION. IT IS A 2000 FORD CONTOUR SE 4 DOOR SEDAN 4CYL AUTOMATIC. IT HAS 210,592 MILES.

RECENTLY HAD SPARK PLUGS CHANGED, PUT 2 TIRES ON FRONT(USED) BUT WITH GOOD TREAD, CHANGED AIR FILTER, AND HAD THE BREAK LIGHTS REPAIRED TO WHERE THEY WORK. THE CAR DOES RUN, BUT POORLY. IT HAS A WORKING A/C, DEFROSTER, HEATER, AND AFTER MARKET CD PLAYER.

THE BAD:

THE TAIL LIGHTS DON'T WORK, DON'T KNOW WHY.
DRIVER SIDE TAIL LIGHT LENS IS BROKEN SO IT IS COVER WITH RED REFLECTOR TAPER IN THE ARE THE IS BROKEN.
HAD A DIAGNOSTIC DONE ON THE CAR, CAME BACK THAT IT NEEDS A CATALYTIC CONVERTER, IT WAS BYPASSED BY PREVIOUS OWNER.
THE CAR HAS TROUBLE CHANGING GEARS, AS IF IT LOSES POWER, NOT SURE WHY, TIMING MAY BE OFF. AGAIN NOT A MECHANIC SO CAN'T GUARANTEE WHAT CAUSES IT EXACTLY.
THE INTERIOR IS DIRTY (CARPET AND SEATS), I PUT CAR SEAT COVERS OVER THEM. AGAIN CAR WAS IN POOR SHAPE WHEN I GOT IT FROM THE PREVIOUS OWNER.
THE HEAD RESTS ON BOTH FRONT SEATS HAVE HOLES CUT IN THE BACK OF THEM WHERE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD TV'S INSTALLED (CAR SEAT COVERS HIDE THE HOLES, CAN'T SEE THEM WITH COVERS ON)
THE DASH SHRANK AND ROLLED UP (VERY COMMON FOR THIS YEAR CONTOUR)
THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR SOME TIMES LOCKS ON ITS OWN AND WILL NOT UNLOCK, YOU WILL HAVE TO UNLOCK PASSENGER DOOR AND UNLOCK IT ON THAT DOOR BUTTON OR YOU CAN REACH OVER AND UNLOCK IT.
THERE ARE DENTS, DINGS, AND SCRATCHES HERE AND THERE ON THE BODY OF THE CAR
PREVIOUS OWNER HAD TINT ON THE BACK WINDOW AND TOOK IT OFF AND SO THE RESIDUE FROM THE TINT IS STILL ON THERE BUT SHOULD BE FAIRLY EASY TO SCRAPE OFF
THE VISOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE IS BROKEN OFF, STILL HAVE IT IN THE CAR, JUST NOT ATTACHED.
BATTERY IN THE CAR IS TOO BIG SO IT WILL NEED TO BE DOWNGRADED, KEEPS HOOD FROM CLOSING DOWN ALL THE WAY.

***THE A/C WORKS. THE DEFROSTER WORKS. THE HEATER WORKS. PREVIOUS OWNER PUT IN AN AFTER MARKET CD PLAYER THAT WORKS GOOD. THE VEHICLE DOES CRANK AND DRIVE.

THE CAR IS IN POOR CONDITION AND NEEDS A LOT OF TLC. I ONLY USED IT FOR A FEW WEEKS AS A POINT A TO POINT B CAR UNTIL I GOT MY CAR BACK.

IF YOU CHOOSE TO PURCHASE THIS CAR, YOU WILL BE PURCHASING THE CAR I HAVE DESCRIBED TO YOU THE BEST I CAN. THIS IS AN AS IS SALE.

Next Ford Raptor spotted wearing aluminum skin

Wed, 07 May 2014

Well, look at what we have here. Judging from these spy shots, Ford is indeed working on the next generation of its off-road-ready F-150 Raptor pickup truck. We've made no attempt to hide our appreciation for the Baja-style truck, which combines most of the usability of a fullsize truck with heavy-duty suspension components to make a kind of performance vehicle that is unique in the market.
What we haven't known, until now, is whether Ford would push forward with its Raptor program now that it has a completely new F-150 to serve as its base. And that's especially true since Ford made the bold move of switching the bodywork of its best-seller from tried-and-true steel to aluminum. As you can see above, the front and rear of this silver truck are clad in current-gen Raptor bodywork, while the center section that houses the occupants appears to come from the upcoming 2015 F-150.
Dissecting the views above, we note a few interesting tidbits. First, there looks to be a bulge in the truck's hood. Second, we see a new grille between the current Raptor's headlights, sporting a mesh finish and two horizontal bars. Lastly, our eyes can't help but lock in on those burly A-arm suspension pieces down below, not to mention all that ground clearance the specialty suspenders bring to the table.

Did a US automaker blow the whistle on Hyundai, Kia fuel economy issue?

Mon, 17 Dec 2012

In all of the most hotly contested mainstream segments of the motoring universe, the difference of one mile per gallon averaged on a widow sticker can mean the difference between a sale and a walk-off - to say nothing of two or three mpg. So, when Hyundai and Kia were forced to reveal that many of their 40-mpg ratings were actually 38s and 37s, well, it made for big news.
It also, conceivably, made for a competitive disadvantage immediately, when the Korean automakers' products were being shopped versus the guys down the block. And it's that disadvantage that makes a recent story from Automotive News so juicy.
AN is reporting that Margo Oge, former head of the Environmental Protection Agency's Office of Transportation and Air Quality, got a tip in 2010 that Hyundai/Kia were "cheating" to get its impressive fuel economy numbers. The tip, said Oge (who retired from the EPA this past September), came from a senior vice president from a domestic automaker. The source was credible enough for Oge to launch an audit of the Hyundai figures, which ultimately lead to the debacle that we reported on a few months ago, and that the Korean company has been trying to bounce back from ever since.

Ford wins second consecutive International Van of the Year award with Transit Connect

Wed, 18 Sep 2013

The redesigned 2014 Ford Transit Connect isn't even on sale yet, but it's already making its presence felt around the world. At a commercial vehicle expo in Russia, the Transit Connect was named the International Van of the Year.
Ford's small work van edged out the new Mercedes-Benz Sprinter by just seven points to allow Ford to grab this honor for the second consecutive year, which it won last year with the Transit Custom. Not only does this make Ford the first to ever win the award in back-to-back years, but it's also the fifth time the automaker has won this award since 2003 (two with the Transit Connect, two with the fullsize Transit and once with the Transit Custom). Ford congratulates itself for the accomplishment in a press release posted below.
