I am looking into some cars and I got a offer for a 92 Mazda Protege with a rebuilt engine only 85000 miles but the manual window wont roll down and the bumper needs to be replaced for $1700($700 down and $50 a week)and also a 1999 Ford Contour for $1000 ( I must admit this one looks better) a new engine (about 25k miles on it) Car has 147k total miles. But this guy doesn't have the Maintenance report on the car. WHAT SHOULD I DO? I am a single parent of 2 and need a car bad and it will be my FIRST car I want to make the right choice as far as reliability is concerned.
 
Go with the Mazda. Im have heard that the Ford Contours don't hold up well.
