Default Ford Probe GT??

So, I was wondering about some websites for used cars and I usually look for BMWs and stuff like that, but I came across a Ford Probe Gt. It's a 2.2 litre 147hp engine. The one that I found was really cheap (1k euro) especially with only 120k km on the clock. However, after some more searching I found a lot of such fine examples. So what's the deal. How come I'm finding 147hp cars with around 100k km on the clock even less for not more tha 1500 euro.

Any comments. Are those cars usually reliable? Enlighten me please

I think they're decent cars. The Probe GT comes with a turbo I think. This was when Ford and Mazda were teaming up...it's the same as a Mazda MX-6...

^ Yes it has a turbo. The non-turbo 2.2l engine produces 110hp.

Isn't there anyone who can say something about reliability??
