20K Mile 1984 Cougar Reply #4 – August 18, 2007, 02:48:12 AM Take another look at the engine bay. That, is not a mint car (might be wrong on that). Outside of that, it looks great. I wonder if it really has only 20,000 mile, or 120,000 and well taken care of.Read his vehicle description as well. What a salesman. "Lots of power". Has he ever driven a stock cougar?Interior looks awesome from the pics though. Quote Selected

20K Mile 1984 Cougar Reply #7 – August 19, 2007, 09:15:16 AM That car has more than 20,000 miles on it. When the speedo miles don't "Line up" like that it has rolled the 100,000 mark. Mine is like that too. Quote Selected

20K Mile 1984 Cougar Reply #12 – August 19, 2007, 02:22:37 PM Why, They don't line up perfect so it could just be 130,313.8K. You really don't know. I thought for sure my car only had 43K on it when I got it. I did the carfax to find out it had 143,xxx on it. Quote Selected
