Which deal does anyone think is better?
94 ED with 130 000km, or 97 EL Fairmont with 197 000km. Both are $7000. Are either of these good deals?

I'd go the EL any day as long as they are in the same condition.

The I6 will last for ages so 197k doesn't mean much.. As long as everything else is ok then definitely the EL.

The ED is a total ripoff, so the EL is definitely the better deal!

ED if it had a windsor donk but doesnt sound like it. Assuming the EL is ok engine(cooling system) and transmission wise, sounds like the better deal. Some nice monty options as well :lol:

I agree with everyone else, go the EL. 197,000km isn't too bad.
