Well, its an '88 Mercury Grand Marquis. But it's ALL MINE!
73,000 miles on it, and its in perfect condition - literally. It was my Grandmother's car - she hasn't really used it in the last 7-8 years because my Grandfather is the one who drives most often, and he has his own car. Anything that *was* questionable about it has been replaced with new parts (catalytic converters were once removed).
It has about the same gas milage as the '85 Volvo 740GLE that I'm driving right now, and thats with a V8 engine. Its blue, complete with shag seat covers!
I'm not sure about the quality of the sound system in it, and am going to replace the deck in it for sure, and maybe the speakers as well (depending on their quality) as soon as I get the money to.
Heh, the volvo I've got now is damn nice to drive, but there are too many things going wrong with it (its a lemon). Firstly, all the instruments are intermittantly working. Its nice to know what your speed, engine temp, and gas levels are... Secondly, theres a bad seal on the engine mount somewhere that leaks oil like a bitch. In the last two years, more money has been spent on it than its worth. It *is* in my parent's name, so its not really mine even though I'm the one driving it. The BEAST (grand marquis) is ALL MINE!
