1997 Lincoln Town Car Signature - One Owner - 68,000 Miles - ***see Video*** on 2040-cars
Dripping Springs, Texas, United States
|
Attention: This beautiful ONE OWNER Lincoln Town Car will ONLY be for sale through this listing period ending 05/25. After then, the car will not be advertised on eBay. This is not a sales tactic. If you have interest in this car, I suggest you bid or contact us before the listing ends.
About the car: This is a one owner car that came from an elderly couple. The car has always been garaged and the condition reflects this. Exterior: Good condition. Paint is glossy. A few scuffs on the bumper. A small dent in the driver's door. (we were quoted $300 to PDR the dents). Tires are Michelin in good condition with lots of tread left. The chrome molding has a little oxidation under the clear protective layer on the front and rear bumpers (not a big deal, new 3M chrome rolls can be bought if desired) Interior: The interior is in very good condition. The seats are very clean and only the drivers seats shows some wear (but not much for a car of this age. No tears) Headliner, panels, all in good condition. Mechanical: The car HAS had the intake manifold replaced (the updated version with metal crossover), so this will not be a concern for the next owner. We were told by the owner that the car has always had synthetic oil changes. Both rear air suspension bags have been replaced this week. See photos. Only one was leaking slightly, but we decided to replace them both so no issues for the new owner. This is a Texas car, purchased in San Antonio at North Park Lincoln and always garaged at the owner's home in Austin. Which means NO RUST or flooding. Look at the photos we took while the car was on the rack for the air suspension work. No rust or oil leaks. Bottom line: The two major issues that are typical of Town Cars of this age (the suspension bags and the intake manifold) have both been replaced. These items would likely be $1,000+ in repairs if taken to a repair shop/Ford dealer. Bid accordingly. If you have any additional questions, call us anytime at 512-608-5523. We will assist you in getting the car picked up by a shipping company if you choose to have it shipped to your location or possibly pick you up at ABIA (Austin Airport) if we are available when your flight comes in. We are a small dealer west of Austin, TX and Texas buyers must pay TT&L. The car is sold as-is with no warranty expressed or implied. Be sure to view the video walk around of the car here: If you have any additional questions, call us anytime at 512-608-5523. |

2013 Lincoln MKS EcoBoost
Tue, 13 Nov 2012A Bench-Warmer In Waiting
I hail from Cleveland, and that means I'm familiar with sports franchises that are always falling short of championships. The Indians, the Browns, the Cavs - they've all come close, but being a resident of C-Town means learning to appreciate the effort more than a reward that never seems to come. So I can appreciate the situation in which Lincoln finds itself today, one where the past is full of repeated attempts to be competitive, and looming on the future's horizon is the next hope on which everything hinges.
That next hope for Lincoln is not the car you see here, but rather the smaller, all-new 2013 MKZ sedan. Like LeBron James entering Gund Arena for the first time, the MKZ will enter dealerships this fall as the brand's chosen savior, markedly more stylish, advanced and desirable than anything offered by Lincoln in recent memory. And that would make this car, the 2013 Lincoln MKS EcoBoost, one of the other 20 guys whose names I can't remember who played alongside LeBron during his rookie season.
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 recalling 370,000 Crown Vic, Grand Marquis and Town Car models
Fri, 30 Aug 2013The Detroit News is reporting that Ford will recall some 370,000 Crown Victoria (pictured), Mercury Grand Marquis and Lincoln Town Car vehicles from model years 2005 through 2011, for an issue regarding the lower intermediate steering shaft. 355,000 of the vehicles in question were sold in the US, with the other 15,000 sold in Canada.
The report indicates that corrosion of the lower intermediate steering shaft could cause a "loss of steering," presumably because of a partial or complete failure of the part. The report points out the dealers will inspect and replace the offending steering component for recalled cars, and may also secure a lower steering column bearing and replace the upper intermediate steering shaft as needed. The company is unaware of any reports of the faulty part causing any accidents or injuries.
Ford helpfully lists states in which corrosion is more likely to have taken place, mostly in the Snow Belt, as you might guess. Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, Wisconsin, West Virginia, and the District of Columbia are listed.
