Not a bad car

Used to own a 92 topaz very similar to the tempo. With regular maintenance they go forever. Mechanically sound. Unfortunately with harsh winters here in Alberta Canada the body did not fair well.

Change the Tempo

I traded my 1988 Yugo GV for the Tempo, and boy thank God I did. The Tempo had 32K Miles when I purchased it. Now it's getting close to 185K. This car was the most reliable car I've ever owned. However, when I had to fix the fan belt, it cost me $750.99. I got 38 MPG on a economy run to NYC.

Happy Tempo Owner

I bought this car in 2001, used with about 50,000 miles on it. I absolutely loved it! I had to park outside at work, and it never failed to start - always kicked right off. This car is very reliable!

Great deal

I've had my Tempo since 1996. I bought it with 29.000 miles and it now has 190,000 and is still going. I'm looking for another one but unfortunately haven't found one. I would buy it in a second! I am not sure what the maximum mileage is for a Ford Tempo, so if anyone has the answer please let me know!
