contour

Quick I need some help!!! A friend of mind broke down on the interstate yesterday and had it towed to a shop, the show said they didn't know what it was but they thought it was the timing belt. They now want $1300 for the repair and I don't think it should cost that much. HELP what 4-cyl does...

I went out to lunch today with some co-workers and rode to the place in a 96 Contour. Whoa. Now I really wonder why anyone complains about the prices of Golfs and Jettas. This thing was noisier than my Rabbit, was less-well screwed together, and had a nastier interior. I'm comparing it to a car...
