  • 2006 Maercury Milan approaching 400,000 miles - 2006 Mercury Milan

  • This car is a beast - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    I bought my 2006 mercury Milan 3 years ago. It had 92k on it when I purchased it but I only paid $2500. I think I got it so cheap bc its a manual and people these days dont know how to drive a stick shift. Anyways it now has 165k and I have not had ONE mechanical issue! Just regular oil changes/tire maintenance. Best car Ive ever owned! I also was involved in an accident where I hit a deer. My airbags deployed and windshield shattered. The front grill took a little damage but After replacing the air bags the car STILL drives perfect. I call this car my bat mobile. Its been through alot and Its a beast lol.

    Great car overall. 500 miles and it is quiet, responsive and good looking. Would like to see more HP. Did 80+ with no problem. Heated, leather seats were great. driver seat could be softer like my ex-camry. Very sporty looking, lots of looks from friends. This is a must consider car. Ford is finally getting it!

  • Owner of Milan, 5,000 mile review - 2006 Mercury Milan

    The outside raised saddle on the front seat creates excessive exterior left thigh pressure when sitting for 8-12 hours traveling accross country. I weigh 200# and I think the seat is to constraining. My 04 Sable leather seat was more comfortable and should have been a design benchmark. The cruise control, radio control and heater control on steering wheel are too small requiring to observe when setting. The size of the 04 Sable steering wheel controls were excelant. The lock/unlock controls on the key fob should be larger. In the dark, confusing which is which. The 04 Sable should have been bench marked. The remote trunk lid should pop the trunk open and not just a release.

    Over all it is a very fine car, pretty much happy with it after 6 months & nearly 8500 miles. My wife is primary driver does a lot of in town driving, so in town mpgs were important she hovers around 27-28 on average. Nice interior, not cluttered & and overly busy, good support on the seats, a main element for my wife. Stylish exterior, much better than the goggle headlight look of its sistership Fusion.

  • My New Sable, errr, Milan - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    I was deciding between a new Civic Si and either a Fusion or Milan. After driving the Civic Si, I decided it is too small (I commute 140 miles/day). Leased a Milan Premier with all options except traction control (I wanted it but the dealer could not get me a car with it). I was prepared to be satisfied but instead have found myself impressed. The price was the same as the Civic Si, and while Iknow its comparing apples and oranges, the Milan is really a lot more car for the money. What really helped make my decisoin was the treatment I received at the Honda dealer - they are old- fashioned leissure-suited liars and thieves. The Milan is exceptionally quiet and smooth.

  • Mercury Finally Matches Competitors - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    A huge value. While this car wont stand out as in any one category, the overall value is tops. A real competitor to Camry, Accord, and Mazda 6. The 17 inch tires and the suspension/steering setup is a nice compromise between Asian car "go cart" suspension feel and heavier German counterparts. Nice dash design, and the exterior styling is sweet. Great in the city and on long trips.

  • Good vehicle - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    Took advantage of year end pricing and financing and not disappointed. Nice family car. If you are looking to save some money by getting the base model of a brand, this model shouldnt disappoint. Took awhile to get used to 4 cylinder after driving 6 cylinder, but after 5 months the car is dependable and gets me from point A to B without any worries. It looks like a more expensive model and so far is very dependable.

  • Milan delivers - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    Just picked up new Milan last week. Drove around town and on 5 hour wkend trip, and it didnt disappoint. Very comfortable seats, smooth quiet ride. Decent mileage (upper 20s) for driving 80+ mph. Overall, the style of the Milan is very supple. From the aggressive front end to the two-toned interior, I feel as though I am in slightly more elegant environment. It has some flaws such as an audiophile stereo w/out the resonance I would expect. The interior w/ sunroof is not built for a taller person as I have to adjust my seating (Im 66"). The engine shifts very quickly from 1st thru 3rd gears. However, I am very satisifed with the car and hope the reliability holds up.

  • Replace Transmission - 2006 Mercury Milan
    By -

    I love this car! But after owning it only 9 months (purchased used) the transmission went out! No warranty with 39k miles! It has a auto trans so Im not sure how this happened? Now Im stuck with the repair/replacement bills. Will never buy another Mercury again. I bought only after my Mercury sable was a total loss from a guy hitting me. Not a happy Mercury owner right now. Will prob trade off and cut my losses! : (
