1998 Lincoln Mark Viii Lsc Sedan 2-door 4.6l on 2040-cars
Brea, California, United States
|
THIS CAR IS EXCEPTIONAL BOTH COSMETICALLY AND MECHANICALLY. Paint is as new, except for a few light scratches on rear bumper which have been touched up. No dents or dings at all; chrome is bright, windshield and glass like new. Interior is as new except for light normal wear on driver's side seat, which was common on all the Mark VIII's, as depicted in the photos. The car drives and runs so smoothly, it is ready to be driven back across the country. No leaks/drips. The tires are upgraded to new 17" Goodyear, which provide better handling. The wheels are also brand new TSW 17" which enhance the looks of the car. Suspension and air ride system works properly, and new ball joints are in, as is the alternator. The transmission has been fully serviced also and is smooth. Brakes are excellent. The A/C blows frigid, works great. JBL radio/CD is awesome. I AM SECOND OWNER, and briefly at that. The car was excellently maintained by owner #1. I drove it home almost 2,000 miles with no problems in early June, then changed the tires, wheels, and alternator and transmission/oil service. I bought it as a second car to my new Lincoln. Well, I sold the new Lincoln to buy a classic high-end Mustang I found in late June, because I'm a classic car collector and needed the room. But due to aging family, etc., I need the 4-door type car back, so I am selling the Mark so I can keep everything in my garage. So I am reluctantly parting ways and going to sell for less than what I've got in it, but that's life. You will be getting a great car to drive for many years for a very fair price. This is my second Mark VIII, I had a new one in 1993, and they are very capable cars and fun to drive with all the comfort features. Contact me to view the car or with any questions. The car is being sold "as is, where is". No warranties, either express or implied. I can assist in locating a good shipper, but shipping is your expense. Fly into SoCal and drive her home. THANKS!!!! |

Lincoln Navigator facelift only has to last until 2016 replacement
Thu, 21 Aug 2014The Navigator is not only Lincoln's longest-serving nameplate - dating back to 1998 when the final Town Car was introduced - but it's also the oldest model still in the brand's portfolio. The current Navigator arrived on the market in 2007, and underwent a refresh just a few months ago for the 2015 model year. The updates were subtle, but if you're waiting for an all-new model, it's just a couple of years down the road.
According to Automotive News, Lincoln is already working on an all-new replacement for the current, long-serving Navigator, which will be revealed two years from now in the middle of 2016 as a 2017 model. At that point, we're expecting it could switch (alongside the Expedition) to the new aluminum architecture introduced on the Ford F-150, seeing as how the current model is based on the old F-150.
In the meantime, the refreshed Navigator ditches the big 5.4-liter Triton V8 in favor of a more economical 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, and wages war in two wheelbase lengths against the V8-powered competition in the form of the Cadillac Escalade (and Escalade ESV), the Land Cruiser-based Lexus LX and the Infiniti QX80, which is based on the overseas Nissan Patrol.
Ford issues four recalls covering 163k vehicles
Tue, 19 Aug 2014Recalls! 2014 will be forever remembered as the year that automakers went recall crazy, with millions and millions of vehicles adding up to crush previous recall records well before the end of the year. Adding to that tally is Ford, which announced a call-back for 163,000 vehicles.
Leading that charge are the 2.0-liter, EcoBoost four-cylinder engines of the Ford Focus ST and Ford Escape. 160,000 of the 2013 and 2014 models have bad wiring harnesses that can disrupt the signals traveling to the powertrain control module. That, in turn, could lead to a check engine light, reduced power and stalling. Notably, Ford hasn't recalled any other vehicles that feature the 2.0 EcoBoost, such as the Fusion, Taurus or Explorer.
While the Focus ST and Escape constitute the vast majority of recalled vehicles, they aren't the only problem children in the Ford family. 1,300 Transit passenger vans from model year 2015 were recalled due to brake fluid leaks, while another 600 Transit cargo variants were recalled after Ford discovered the windowless sliding doors could come open in the event of a side-impact crash. Dealers will replace the sealing washers on the passenger variants and add a reinforcement plate on the cargo models, The Detroit News reports.
Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
