Hi all! So, i've been offered a fourth generation 2000 v8 4.6L engine mustang with 130,000 miles on an automatic transmission. The engine has been rebuilt. A mechanic is selling it to me and i was wondering how reliable these cars are. There is a 2000 Lincoln town car with 40,000 miles that i can purchase instead. Which one should i buy?
Thanks so much!

Price of both?
The Town Car will last longer. Those Panther platform sedans were real tanks.
The 4.6L V8 in the Mustang is a solid engine, but with 40k miles on it that Town Car isn't even broken in yet. I'd go that route.
Be sure to have a mechanic verify the mileage on the Lincoln Town car as well as the rest of the car before buying.
Good advice.
By the town car if you want less problems and longer life
