- I am the 3rd owner and have all records from the 2nd owner who bought it from the 1st original owner-dealer back in 1999 when the car had 15,000 miles on it.
- I bought it in 2006 when it had 79,000 miles and I always changed the oil every 3,000 miles on the dot...never missed an oil change...also changed transmission fluid often, fuel filter often, rear differential fluid and would add fuel injector cleaner with a gas fillup at least once a month or every 3rd or 4th fillup. Non smoking adult, never abused, always clean, cared for and bathed in armor all. Good leather seats, interior, carpet and steering wheel! - Original Paint, nothing to hide, no accidents. Original factory stereo-radio-cassette and CD player, will include cassette to 1/8 inch audio mini jack adaptor so you can plug in your phone, iPod, laptop, tablet etc... Trunk is clean with spare, jack and wheel locks. - I had Intrax lowering springs installed and KYB Gas Shocks which brought it down 1 1/2 to 2 inches, so the ride is much, much better, super tight handling and it looks cool, also front camber kit for proper front end alignment. - Some recent maintainence done within the past year and a half include, A/C charge-new hose, Radiator flush, new upper and lower radiator hoses, radiator cap, thermostat, S-belt, battery, coil, rack and pinion, heavy duty steering shaft, fuel pump, motor mounts, transmission mount, and I just installed new trunk lift hydraulic support things, so the trunk stays up. - New Intake manifold was installed a while ago...all the late 90's mustang intakes corroded and leaked coolant at one point around 80-90k miles...I already had it replaced with the redesigned model, so you don't have to worry about that happening again. - It has been in a garage most of the time for the past 8 years where I worked...all day. The garage was difficult to get in and out of, so I have touched up the corners of the bumpers where I scraped them up a bit. I have been working from home since september 2012, so I rarely drive it anymore, maybe put 2,500 miles on it since then. The odometer had stopped working recently, but I just had it fixed, so there are maybe 1,000 more miles on it that what is displayed. - Tires are great Michelin Pilot Sport XGT 245/45/ZR17 - Known Issues...mostly cosmetic...no surprises - As I mentioned before, I have nothing to hide, so there will be no surprises, I will list everything I know about this car here... -The top does NOT leak but there were some rips in it which I have patched up with a kit I bought online as best I could, please see picts...you can see close up but not noticeable from a distance...at least this way they won't spread. -There are some "soft" dents on the right rear passenger side quarter panels because the previous owner's kids used to kick a soccer ball into it where they played in the front yard, again, please look at the pictures...you can see close up but not noticeable from a distance, didn't bother me, so I never tried to fix, maybe you can pull them out with a suction cup. -When the fuel pump was replaced, the seal on filler tube should have been replaced or maybe they didn't put it back in too well, so if you top it off at the pump a little gas will leak, I never noticed it before because I filled up and got on the freeway right away, so, by the time I got home, I never saw any gas leaking, so if you put in 10 gallons and do not top off, instead of the 13 gallons to fillup and top off, you will be good - Left front drivers side corner lense was cracked, by a co-worker of mine, I repaired with clear silicone adhesive sealer, hardly noticeable now from a distance, but they are cheap and easy to replace. - Does NOT smoke, drip or burn oil, if you can see the picts of my driveway, there are no oil spots on there but I do have to add a quart when it gets close to the 3,000 mile mark...which is when I change the oil anyways - The bright orange shifter indicator sticker thing came off a long time ago, so when you go from Park to reverse to neutral to drive, you have to keep count, you might be able to "fish" it out of the console and stick it back on, I can see it laying on the bottom inside the shifter-console there but it didn't bother me, so I never tried to fix it. - Bottom line - its getting harder and harder to find these with original paint and in decent condition, this is in way better shape than 90% of the ones I see out on the road today. It has lived its entire life here in southern CA and it has been a dependable daily driver for me since 2006, other than the top, it is in excellent overall condition. I recently saw another one just like mine sell in Texas for $5,000.00 so I think its a good deal, although that one had a new top, it didn't have the lowering springs like mine...and my engine compartment is cleaner. - I am an individual so you do not pay sales tax and I cannot offer or arrange for shipping, warranty etc... I am in Encino CA near the 101 and 405 freeways, you can come see the car during the day before the auction ends if you like. It will come with 2 PATS chipped Keys and one keyless entry, remote trunk opening fob. - if you do buy it and are coming from out of state, I am willing to pick you up from Burbank airport (which is closer to me) or LAX airport so you can drive it back home...just please give me a ride back to my home first, before you go on your way. |

And the Top Gear UK Cars of the Year for 2013 are...
Tue, 17 Dec 2013Those loony Brits at Top Gear have named their Car of the Year, and if you're thinking it's the McLaren P1, Jaguar F-Type, Land Rover Range Rover Sport or Rolls-Royce Wraith, we're sorry to inform you that none of those Anglo automobiles earned the crown. In fact, the winner of Top Gear's most prestigious award is quite the surprise.
Of course, those cars weren't without their own awards. The P1 was the top hypercar (sorry, Porsche 918 and Ferrari LaFerrari), while the F-Type netted best convertible and the Range Rover Sport was voted SUV of the Year. Other honorable mentions included the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Black and S-Class, the Porsche 911 GT3, the BMW i3 and the Ferrari 458 Speciale. The winner, though, wasn't even a high-dollar supercar. It was the Ford Fiesta ST.
Yes, the Fiesta ST beat out some off-the-wall cars like the revolutionary Volkswagen XL1 and the bonkers Peugeot 208 T16 Pikes Peak, not to mention all the cars we listed above, to take the title of Top Gear Car of the Year. And if you've driven one, you'll completely understand why.
Ford's simple suit makes you feel like a drunk driver
Tue, Mar 25 2014We've all heard about the dangers of drunk driving for practically our entire lives. Whether it's from PSAs on TV or lectures in school, no one can claim ignorance of drunk driving being extremely dangerous. However, that doesn't prevent some people from still doing it. Ford is trying to take the safety message directly to young drivers with a special suit that allows them to simulate driving under the influence. It is all part of Ford's Driving Skills for Life program that gives free driving education to young people. The program is meant to "train kids in skills they don't learn in driver's ed," said Kelli Felker, Ford Safety Communications Manager, to Autoblog. The drivers don a few items to impair their senses and make them off-balance to simulate having a few too many drinks and then go out on a closed course with an instructor to see the effects. Felker said that the suit is a new part of the program, and Ford just received the outfit in the US. It will be incorporated into the training here in the late spring or early summer. Scroll down to see the effect it has on drivers in Europe. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.
2016 Ford Explorer order guide revealed
Wed, Jan 21 2015The configurator for the refreshed 2016 Ford Explorer is already up and running. However, if you're the type of person that really likes to dig into the nitty-gritty of a vehicle's features, then the order guide for this latest Ford is now available (pictured right). While the documents don't list fuel economy, engine power or pricing, they give a precise idea of all of the differences separating each of the five trim levels: Base, XLT, Limited, Sport and Platinum. In addition to the tweaked styling across the board, even the Base model now features a rearview camera with a washer. There are also three new colors available: Shadow Black, Blue Jeans Metallic and Guard Metallic. Base, XLT and Limited trims are available with either a 3.5-liter V6 or new, optional 2.3-liter EcoBoost four-cylinder. All of them are mated to a six-speed automatic, and all-wheel drive is optional with either engine. The new Platinum trim basically loads the Explorer up with everything imaginable. Power comes from the 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, matched with all-wheel drive. Plus, the Platinum trim gets standard luxuries like a dual-pane moonroof, adaptive cruise control, a premium sound system and Ford's super-soft Nirvana Leather covering the seats. There are also some new tech features throughout the rest of the lineup. For example, an updated auto-parking system is also available on the Limited but comes standard on the Platinum. Furthermore, a 180-degree front camera and second-row USB charging are optional on the Sport but are standard on the Limited and Platinum. Check out the gallery for even more of the changes.
