Up for sale is my Cartier Designer Series 1981, 81 Continental MK VI, Mark VI 2 Door Coupe. The Cartier color scheme for this year was Medium Pewter Metallic Paint, Medium Pewter Leather seats and Steering Wheel and Medium Pewter Vinyl Roof with Maroon Wrapover molding and a single Dark Red Painted Accent Stripe. This car is LOADED with Factory Optional Features: Lighted Entry with Exterior Driver Door Mounted, 'Keyless Entry" keypad and Illuminated Door Lock Key Cylinders, Power Windows with Minivent feature, Power Factory Moonroof, Power Automatic Locking Door Locks, Twin Comfort Lounge 8 way Power Front Reclining Seats, Twilight Sentinal  Automatic Hidden Headlights with Auto High Beam Dimmer, Large Single Round Coach Parking Lamps built into each Headlamp Door Cover, Tilt Wheel, Cruise Control, Power Steering, Power Disc Brakes, Power Trunk Release, Power Antenna, Digital AM FM CASSETTE Radio with Premium Sound Feature, Automatic Climate Control, Digital Dash, Electronic Trip Computer, Electronic Auto Dimming Rear View Mirror, Cable Remote Right and Left Side View Mirrors, Right and Left Door Armrest Storage Compartments, Lacey Aluminium Spooked Wheels. 
I bought this car in April 2001, at the Carlilse Pennsylvania Car Show with only 73000 miles on it. To the best of my knowledge, this is an all original un-restored, untouched survivor. The interior is beautiful with the exception of the top of the back seat (See Photo). The Dash Pad and Speaker Grills are in great shape as are the original Cartier Floor Mats (See Photo). Everything seems to be in working order. The body is straight and untouched with only a minor ding seen here and there. There are no major dents, scratches, chips, gouges, or rust to speak of. However as you can see in the pictures the clear coat paint finish is starting to go which is typical of cars from this era, but it is NOT flaking or peeling. The chrome is showing signs of wear as well. 
The engine compartment is in great shape along with the trunk interior showing its original un-used mini spare and bumper jack.
    I did not use this car too much at all. The odometer is showing only 79400 miles now. In the 6000 miles I have driven it over the past 13 years it has always been garage kept. I have never driven it in the snow or salty road conditions and it has seen very little rain. I believe it's been off the road since 2003 or 2004. I would go and start it on a regular basis and take it out for an occasional ride every few months weather permitting.
I recently replaced the battery after the winter and she started right up, drove her out of the garage, gave her a bath and went for a ride. The brakes felt a little low and spongy which may require a good bleeding. I would recommend changing all fluids and filters  as routine servicing maintenance by the new owner for piece of mind.
This 1981 Continental Mark VI  2door Cartier Designer Series by Lincoln and the Ford Motor Company, VIN : 1MRBP95F1BY640726   is being sold in "AS IS" condition with no warranties guarantees or returns promised or implied.

Dan Neil pokes fun at the celeb cars of 2014

Sun, Dec 28 2014

Look, we try really hard not to pay any attention to the Kardashians and their vapid reality TV empire. But, as troubling as that brood may be, occasionally we're impressed and/or horrified by their four-wheeled conveyances. In fact, that curiosity extends beyond talentless reality stars with rotund glutes to celebs in general. That's why we're enjoying Dan Neil's sometimes biting take on the celebrity cars of 2014. Besides paying tribute to Kim K, husband Kanye West and the adorable Lamborghini that their spawn rides about in, Neil also takes a look at LeBron James' turn as a Kia spokesman and boxer Floyd Mayweather's trio of Bugatti Veyrons. Matthew McConaughey is a focus of Neil's as well, thanks to his oft-panned advertisements for Lincoln (and the raucous parodies they inspired), before finishing on the high, with Jerry Seinfeld and his new Porsche 918 Spyder. Take a look at Neil's recap of the celebrity cars of 2014. News Source: The Wall Street Journal Celebrities Humor Bugatti Kia Lamborghini Lincoln Porsche Videos porsche 918 spyder celebrity dan neil

Even Ford executives had issues with MyFord Touch

Fri, Oct 7 2016

MyFord Touch is one of the auto industry's more controversial features. The media broadly panned the infotainment system developed with Microsoft for its slow responses and reliance on voice commands to navigate its deep menus. Oh, and Ford executives weren't big fans, either. Newly revealed court documents in a California class-action lawsuit demonstrate the level of venom Ford employees, both big and small, reserved for the Blue Oval's infotainment system. An error caused Bill Ford's navigation system to crash, leaving the family scion stuck on the side of the road in an unfamiliar area. The documents, unearthed by Forbes, detail current CEO Mark Fields' aggravations with MFT, too. A mechanic emailed an image of a cracked infotainment screen on an Edge to one of Ford's top Sync engineers, Kenneth Williams, suggesting "Mark Fields may have been a little aggravated with the system." But Ford and Fields' issues are nothing compared to the woes of the engineers that had to work on MFT. In a collection of emails obtained by Forbes, one engineer called the system "a polished turd," while another simply said, "These poor customers." And after one engineer suggested using a photo of Ford's Oakville Assembly Plant – home of the Edge, Flex, Lincoln MKX, and MKT production – as a background for the system, one of his coworkers said in an email that someone should instead Photoshop the image to read "abandon hope all ye who enter here," the Detroit News reports. Another summed up the problem, saying: "Ford's quality reputation is completely on the line ... another model year with the same crap is not acceptable." MyFord Touch almost single-handedly torpedoed Ford's reputation in widely reported quality metrics, including JD Power and Consumer Reports. Ford responded with a refreshed Sync3, a wildly improved rethink of its infotainment system that is far more responsive and easier to live with every day.

Lincoln owners in San Diego, your chauffeur awaits

Fri, May 12 2017

In an effort to make up lost market share, Lincoln is trying desperately to differentiate itself from other luxury automakers. The automaker is offering and expanding a number of services aimed at setting itself apart not only from Mercedes-Benz, Lexus, and Audi, but also the Fords that so often share showroom space. One such offering, the Lincoln Chauffeur, is expanding beyond its initial rollout in Miami, Florida, across the country to San Diego, California. The concept is simple. For $30/hour, a chauffeur will drive you around in your own vehicle, stopping at the store, the gas station, or even at school to pick up the kids. The chauffeur can do these things with or without you present, meaning the driver can drop you off at the airport and return the car home, allowing others to use the car rather than leaving it parked at the airport. The service is available to old and new Lincoln owners, though the former get eight free hours to try the service. San Diego was part of a planned expansion. If things continue to go well, look for further rollouts in cities across the country. Related Video: News Source: Lincoln via Automotive News Lincoln Ownership
