The "Montego" is back!
Just found out that Mercury is selling a car called the "Montego". How many of you remember the version made by British Leyland (when they weren't on strike)? We had a "Maestro", and it was the most amazing rust magnet ever! The scary thing is that the Mercury model looks like the BL one a little.....ooh, er...

We are in the market for a new car, but with a name like that it's a no go.

My Mum and Dad have always driven Volvos, but once they bought a Maestro. They kept it for precisely one month before getting rid of it and buying another Volvo! My Dad still refers to it as that "matchbox on wheels".
