You are bidding on this really sharp 1998 Lincoln Town Car MarkVIII. It has high miles, but the only affect this has on the vehicle is it gets you the car you have been wanting for a nice summer drive for a lot cheaper than what they usually go for. This thing has a lot of life left in it. It functions perfectly. Mechanically this car is really sound. It starts right up and can drive across the country if you need it to. These vehicles are designed to last and perform. This car suggests premium gasoline, so it does not gets surprisingly great Gas Mileage. I drove this from Cincinnati to Columbus Ohio for less than $40 in Gas. Let me explain how this car ended up in my possesion... My uncle owns a used car lot. I am a member of his dealership and like to sell cars on the side for a little bit of supplemental income. I have access to dealer only auctions and that's where I get these vehicles. I purchased this car from Manheim Cincinnati. I had absolutely no trouble with the vehicle driving the distance. This is probably because I only buy cars that are "Auction Guaranteed" This is in reference to the powertrain of the vehicle. (engine and transmission). I really enjoy road trips, so I would be willing to drive this car to the winning bidder for a fee a lot less than what it costs to ship vehicles these days. I got this for me to simply flip. I got a good deal and am willing to sell it cheap. I simply just want to sell it and sell it without reserve. hopefully someone can enjoy it for what it is. a very cheap but reliable classic that is discontinued. You never see these on the road. You can tell it has mechanically been well taken care of. Everything works, but The A/C blows warm air. However; the first thing I did was have my Mechanic look it over and change the oil check fluids etc etc. The tires look to be with good life left on them, but I would do an alignment and rotation, because there is a slightly annoying shake at or around 55 mph. There are no signs of this being a smoker's car. Really this thing is ready to just be picked up and driven. Please keep in mind this is an 17 year old car that was clearly garage kept. When you think of this, you can actually feel very good how well the overall shape of the vehicle is. There are no gaps between fender and hood and such things (meaning no real evidence of any body damage in its life). The four rims sparkle and all match. There are not even minor blemishes on the body. The stereo is aftermarket and works perfectly. Actually has a cool design It has AUX and USB inputs. Please bid confidently. I have 100% feedback and try my best to describe the vehicles. Any specific questions I will gladly answer. call email or text 614-271-0330 There are a few points I have to disclose. 1.The driver's side door does not open from the outside. The door handle exists but a latch from the inside seems to be unhooked. 2. There is a tear in the driver's side visor. 3. The glove compartment is missing, the panel underneath the steering wheel is missing exposing the wires (nothing dangerous or unhooked, just an eye soar if you look down. 4. The chrome trimming around the ignition area is missing

Five vehicles named Top Safety Pick+ including new Civic, MKZ

Fri, 08 Mar 2013

In an attempt to help push vehicle safety to a higher level, the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety created a stricter Top Safety Pick+ rating last year, which incorporates a brutal small overlap test and requires cars to get Good ratings in four out of the five categories (and no less than Acceptable in the fifth). Joining the list of the safest cars of 2013, the 2013 Volvo XC60, Lincoln MKZ, Honda Civic (sedan and coupe) and the 2014 Mazda6 have all received the coveted TSP+ rating.
The Mazda6 and Lincoln MKZ have both been completely redesigned, and both received Acceptable ratings in the small overlap test. The Honda Civic, coming off its emergency refresh for 2013, is the first small car to be subjected to the small overlap test, and IIHS says that one of the car's many upgrades includes a stiffer front structure allowing it to receive Good ratings in all categories. Similarly, the XC60 gets all Good ratings thanks to, according to IIHS, Volvo updating the airbag software allowing the side airbags to inflate during the small overlap test.
The 2014 Subaru Forester has not yet been subjected to the small overlap test, so it must make do with just a Top Safety Pick rating until the IIHS tests small utility vehicles, which is expected to happen later in the spring.

Lincoln Continental sent 'into the vault' ... again

Wed, Jul 1 2020

Ford confirmed today that the Lincoln Continental will be discontinued for North America after the 2020 model year. The news certainly isn't surprising given the Continental's meager sales figures, lukewarm critical reception and the fact that the Navigator has resoundingly entrenched itself as the brand's true modern flagship. "The name will go back into the vault," Lincoln spokesperson Angie Kozleski told the Detroit Free Press. "It has a long and rich history. But production for this vehicle will be ending at the end of this year." In an official statement, the brand said the decision was due to the continued decline of full-size premium sedans in the United States. The Continental is built in Flat Rock, Mich., and dates back to 2017 when Lincoln resurrected the nameplate after a 15-year hiatus. The car itself technically replaced the unloved MKS in Lincoln's lineup, and although based on a well-received concept car, the actual production model failed to live up to the rather grand style statement that had been promised. The interior in particular was a letdown. Lincoln sold 6,586 Continentals in 2019; likely many of those were fleet sales. Nevertheless, it can be argued that this Continental triggered Lincoln's rebirth. It was named something, for starters, as the Nautilus, Aviator and Corsair would eventually follow, signaling the end to the unloved and confusing MK nomenclature. And although it didn't live up to its concept, Lincoln at least learned from the episode and didn't repeat the mistake with Navigator or Aviator. They came as promised.  Though it's dead in the U.S., the Continental will live on for 2021 in China, where its sales are in decline but not by as much. And although it'll likely be remembered as a footnote in the long history of cars named Lincoln Continental, and with few fans in its corner, at least it reaches the end of the line having left a mark. Cue the Traveling Wilburys.  This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences. Manage Settings.

Ford hybrid sales rebound following MPG controversy

Sun, 31 Aug 2014

Ford hybrid customers apparently have very short memories. With two EPA fuel economy reratings in the last year, sales of the C-Max, Fusion Hybrid and Lincoln MKZ haven't been too terribly dented, Ward's Auto reports.
All three vehicles saw sales dips following the August 2013 rerating, although sales of the MKZ Hybrid had begun to rebound as early as November of that year. C-Max sales, meanwhile, took slightly longer, with sales on a steadily improving course as early as February of this year.
The second rerating, in June of this year, has had an even smaller effect on the Blue Oval's hybrids. The C-Max has actually been subject to a sales increase, while both the MKZ and Fusion saw minor sales drops (less than 400 units between the two in the month following the rerating).
