even if I went blind tomorrow I would still be able to tell you it's a 90s Ford by the sound of the whining power steering pump I will say though, old Fords from this era had good electrical systems. A lot of the wiring was heavy gauge and the connectors used thick, stout plastic. Almost every Ford I've worked on from this era has been electrically sound, unless the previous owner messed with it for some reason. Not at all surprised that pretty much everything worked on this one. the horns were likely physically rusted stuck, and probably would've worked after a few sharp smacks with a plastic mallet
That is a 1987 model, the 1997 model has a different grille and headlamps. My late father had a 1989 one of these and a 1993 Taurus. The 1993 one it's headlamp bezels were smaller. 😊
@@Timico1000 Не льстите лишний раз этому Таурусу, он всем своим видом говорит что он из 80х, в 90х уже были действительно прогрессивные по дизайну и начинке модели , тот же пассат б5 или Шкода октавия, Ауди, Форд Фокус и так далее.

I can’t believe you not only found an ‘86-‘89 Taurus, but you found one that ISN’T completely rotted through. Most of these cars by the time they hit their 5th birthday, especially in my area of the US, were so rotted they were practically undriveable. Very good find! In any country.
The Ford Taurus was the best selling car here in the U.S. for a long time. Next to the Honda Accord. It's been a long time since ive seen one though. Great job getting this one running again! Still looks good!
But remember that Fords of those days had, whether German or American as seen here, 5-digit speedometers. So 153 000 miles is more likely given the state of the car.
Nice to see an old Taurus still in decent condition. Seems like an import from the US. Registered in Estonia back in 1994. Lots of American cars were imported from US back in early 90's. Customs tariff wasn't a burden and only modification needed for most cars was rear fog light and amber turn signals. Many of the vehicles, specially Dodge and Chevy vans had either EU lights fitted or separate turn signals added which looked bit weird. Most of them were run into the ground and ended is scrapyards.
I bought an '89 Sable Wagon ( identical to this one) with 120,000 miles on it just as a drive to work car/pickup truck. The transmission was slipping and there was an electrical short in the power windows. I changed the transmission fluid and filter and put some JB treatment in it. I installed a toggle switch on the main power wire to the windows and drove it for 5 years and over 200,000 miles on it when I gave it to my friend who then drove it to Alaska! Good old car and sneaky good handling.

@@lennytlm They were fancy for the time. The Scorpio I think was more midsized within the US market, while the Taurus was more full sized. The closest sibling to the Mondeo in the US was the Ford Contour/Mercury Mystique in the late 90s, then the Fusion in the mid 2000's.

I had the exact model, but sedan. 1988 2,5 liter 4 gear automatic. It was white also. I have never put so much money in repairing a car- it just kept on failing in many levels. Can't tell it's reliable but it is comfortable as hell. It's a most comfy car I ever had for sure.
I bought a 94 Taurus Sedan 4 years ago - 46,000 miles. Don't worry about the power steering noise. When turning at low speed, mine is only slightly quieter than that! It lets people know it's a Ford. The water pump failure also made a hell of a noise.
They were never officially sold in Europe. But some were imported and back in the 90s i even met a guy who had a Taurus, a baby-blue one. All i remember is that he complained about the prices for spareparts as they had to be ordered especially for him - and there was not much the local Ford dealer could do for him as they had no documents of the Taurus.
There are some running around imported from the US. The analogy with the Sierra/Scorpio isn't a good one because, aside from the logo, everything is different: the Sierra and Scorpio were German-made, rear wheel drive, and had different engines (the Cologne V6s). The Taurus is front wheel drive, had a US V6 (don't remember the name) and they were bigger cars than those two.
i always wondered, what do you do with these cars afterwards? i've seen some videos where the cars were absolutelly done, so for those i believe it was mainly for entertainment, but what about the ''decent'' ones? i absolutelly love your videos by the way, i've watched almost all of them, i found it very educational and relaxing 😃❤
I had the sister series 87 Mercury Sable sedan with that engine; it was a lot more reliable than my family's 89 Taurus with the 4cyl- that thing had bad electrical gremlins. On a cold winter day my passenger inside door handle snapped loose and we didn't replace it so we'd roll down the window to get out on that side for its last year. Its transmission died with a bang in 2005ish at around 200k miles and that was the end of my journey with it.
They came with 2 engine choices 3.8 v6 and 3.0 v6 i had a 1993 3.0 and no problems usually my friend had a 3.8 v6 and head gasket problems but capable of high mileage though

This is a strangely optioned car. Manual Mirrors and Clock delete, yet it has cruise, A/C and a stereo. Hold on to this one because it is unique. I'm sure I saw at one point the manual mirrors NOS on eBay.
@jamespn it's a US market Taurus wagon (estate) so the odometer is reading 36,355.7 Miles (US Miles), or 58,169.2 Kms in the metric measurements. (1 US mile is 1.6 kms, so 36,355.7 miles X 1.6 = 58,169.2 kms)

Its quite funny that the American's hated the Sierra and hated the MK3 Granada but loved it when Ford took the Granada size and specs and skinned it with Sierra like body panels and called it the Taurus lol Always amazed me the American's refused the 2.9 Cosworth powered Granada's, a motor that could leave any US police car in the dust and handled like it was on rails at speed...
@@module79l28 No, None of the SHO's were offered in AWD. unless they were heavily modified. also the wagons Never came in an SHO unless it was engine swapped.
A big seller in Canada, they were everywhere. And just like that they were gone. The only Taurus that has value were the Yamaha powered SHO models. Otherwise not worth saving here. Flexiny's sure has a minty interior, though!

For my 2008 taurus X you had to be going at least 30 mph to use cruise control. IDK if it's the same thing with this older taurus or if it's just a ford thing but that was always annoying.
Old american station wagon with V6, very rare in Europe. I hope it will be saved. Really suprised how it easy it starts after 4 years.

That 3.0 Vulcan enginge is unstoppable! rare to see these made it to Estonia, great video as per usual!!!
That’s truly American spec - whitewalls, bench seat, automatic, and no European lights. I can’t believe it’s still alive with that kind of mileage!

@@anthonydelcoure1264 - Definitely imported from the USA, there are lots of dead giveaways. 🙂
The Taurus was closer to the Sierra since it was a rear wheel drive.
@@julosx - All the Taurus were FWD, except for the last generation of the SHO version which was AWD.
@@module79l28 No, None of the SHO's were offered in AWD. unless they were heavily modified. also the wagons Never came in an SHO unless it was engine swapped.
Bro this is literally ASMR
A big seller in Canada, they were everywhere. And just like that they were gone. The only Taurus that has value were the Yamaha powered SHO models. Otherwise not worth saving here. Flexiny's sure has a minty interior, though!
I didn't know Europe got those old American Tauruses.

👋 Flexiny! Do you guys find these old-cool cars in Saaremaa? Just wondering...
For my 2008 taurus X you had to be going at least 30 mph to use cruise control. IDK if it's the same thing with this older taurus or if it's just a ford thing but that was always annoying.
Number One....!!!!💪💪
Love old american cars
