Condition: UsedA vehicle is considered used if it has been registered and issued a title. Used vehicles have had at least one previous owner. The condition of the exterior, interior and engine can vary depending on the vehicle's history. See the seller's listing for full details and description of any imperfections.Seller Notes:"She's an oldie but a goodie! Fairly good condition, just some minor imperfections here and there. As the pictures show, there are a few body flaws: clear coat cracked/missing on front hood and bumper, small rust spots on hood and side, and shallow scratches. Mechanical defects are at a minimum, since we've been focusing on fixing the essentials as needed for a safe and comfortable ride. Some "wearable" parts may need replacing, but no major repair is necessary."

This Sable is a clean, well-maintained vehicle. It's a smooth and steady ride in a comfortable, smoke-free interior. Despite being old, she still has a lot of life left in her and is very reliable. Many major repairs have been performed within the past few years by a reputable group of mechanics, so no major work should be required for the foreseeable future!! Good to go! Recently replaced parts include items from the engine, exhaust system, brake/wheel systems, and suspension. (All calipers, sway bars, 2 rotors, brake pad with lifetime warranty, brake lines, shock/strut, master cylinder, lower ball joint, alignment, Interstate battery, etc.) The transmission was also rebuilt a few years ago. We will provide exhaustive maintenance/repair records to the buyer, so that you may use them for reference with your own mechanic (and warranty information on covered parts).

Extra features added include front fog lights and rear spoiler. I inherited this car from my grandmother, and she was very easy on it. She didn't drive it long distances and definitely didn't race with it, so that's why it only has 130k miles despite being a 1997 model. However, it's been driven long distances once in a while (100 miles at a time or more) and does do well with those conditions also. It's been fairly dependable over the several years my wife and I have owned it. We are getting rid of it because we finally saved up enough to upgrade to a sportier car. But this Sable still has years and many miles to go before it quits!!
The registration and inspection expired this month, so that will need to be done. It needs to be out of our lot very soon, as we live in an apartment complex and they do not tolerate stationary vehicles sitting around. No reasonable offer will be refused! We will accept cash or bank check (no personal checks, please) up front.

Ford's J Mays feels vindicated by Fusion reception

Tue, 25 Sep 2012

It's hard to think back now, but the same man overseeing the design of the 2013 Ford Fusion also presided over a rather lackluster period in Ford design, highlighted by vehicles like the Five Hundred and Freestyle. With the redesigned Fusion receiving high praise, J Mays tells Automotive News that he feels vindicated from criticisms suggesting he's not a daring enough designer.
When Mays took over as lead of design in 1997, he admits to having quite an ego ("My head would barely fit through the door some days. I've long since gotten over myself") and the workload to match. With the Blue Oval's portfolio full of premium brands like Aston Martin, Jaguar, Land Rover and Volvo at that point, along with the bread-and-butter Ford, Lincoln and Mercury models, Mays certainly had quite the challenge.
It was in the mid-2000s that Mays took over just the premium brands, and took on the new title of Chief Creative Officer. At the time, Mays endured some criticism for looking backwards to retro styling, rather than setting a new standard for American car design - criticism that Mays says he is free from with the all-new Fusion.

Kit Cat: Mercury Cougar makes perfect Bugatti Veyron substitute

Bugatti Veyron kit car - Click above for high-res image gallery
If you've got a pulse in your wrist and a snapping brain cell in your head, chances are you wouldn't mind parking a Bugatti Veyron in your garage. But for most mere mortals, scrounging up the cash for a physics-bending piece of 16-cylinder glory would require all sorts of unpalatable tasks. Fortunately for those who want to look the part without having to participate in human trafficking, the kit car universe has stepped in to save the day. All you need is a 1999-2002 Mercury Cougar, a boat load of fiberglass and a little patience.
Oh, and $89,000.

Ford Recalling 70k Escape and Mariner Hybrids for cooling issue

Fri, 12 Sep 2014

Ford is recalling about 70,209 examples of the 2005-2008 Ford Escape Hybrid and the 2006-2008 Mercury Mariner Hybrid because the cooling pumps for their hybrid systems could fail.
According to the company's defect notice, it's possible for the original "Motor Electronics Coolant (MEC) Pump" to wear out and fail, which would could cause the hybrid system to overheat. If this happens, the vehicle goes into a safety mode that takes away most or all of its power. However, braking and steering still operate normally. After cooling down, the affected models restart normally. The company says that it's not aware of any accidents or injuries related to this problem.
Ford will begin repairing the vehicles in late October, and dealers will be installing improved, brushless pumps on the affected models at no charge to owners. If drivers had their pumps fail before this recall, they can contact Ford for a possible reimbursement.
