2010 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, Unmarked, 33k Miles!!! 118 Hours!!! on 2040-cars
Canal Winchester, Ohio, United States
This
is one of the nicest examples of it's kind available anywhere, perhaps
one of the nicest ones left in the world. This is a beautiful, dry, western car
that is absolutely as nice underneath as it is on top. It is finished in Arizona Beige Clearcoat Metallic, one of the most highly sought after and hard to find colors
available on the Crown Victoria. If you are searching for the ultimate
Crown Victoria Police Interceptor, here you go...
You are viewing a very low-mileage, extremely low idle hours, always unmarked, loaded 2010 Ford Crown Victoria Police Interceptor. It just came out of service with the United States Federal Government, in the western U.S., where it was assigned to one agent for it's entire life...and with only 33,659 actual, documented miles and 118 idle hours on it. This is a beautiful example of a very rare, hard to find car in the most "in-demand" color. The finish is excellent and this vehicle has an absolutely
spotless Carfax and AutoCheck report. It has never been involved in any
accidents. It is in beautiful condition in every regard. This unit has never had decals or antennas installed anywhere. It has no holes
drilled anywhere and has never been in regular police service. This unit is loaded with options, including all of the things you would expect...power heated mirrors, power windows, power locks, power trunk release, daytime running lights, factory auxiliary police dome lamp, factory AM/FM/CD stereo, driver and passenger side airbags, cruise control, cloth front bucket seats, and a 3.27 ratio rear differential w/Traction-Lok (limited-slip) rear differential (code X5). These items, of course, are just the beginning of the list of equipment on this car. In my
years of buying and selling police vehicles, I have had very few cars
that come close to the condition of these units, they are extremely well
maintained, actually over-maintained, and typically need no
repairs. This was a one-driver car, assigned to one federal agent
throughout the entire life of the car. For those of you who know, that
makes all of the difference in the world when it comes to how the cars
are maintained and treated. It has NEVER been smoked in, looks as close
to new as you will find and has zero wear on the interior, even on the
seating. The rear seat appears to have never been used. The trunk compartment is like new, extremely clean, and the original, brand-new full size spare tire is in place. This
unit is also equipped with, of course, the full "Police Interceptor"
package which includes the 4.6-liter H.O. engine, 4-speed overdrive
heavy-duty transmission, 3.27 ratio rear axle w/ Traction-Lok differential,
lateral bow (roof) reinforcement, Good Year Eagle RS-A 235-55-17
police-spec, ultra-high performance radials mounted on the factory,
heavy-duty, 17" vented police wheels with full, factory deluxe wheel
covers, stainless-steel dual exhaust with factory crossover pipe,
police-only lightweight balanced aluminum driveshaft, special
police-spec heavy-duty frame, 4-wheel disc brakes, severe-duty
suspension, heavy-duty cooling, lamp pre-wire group, 2-way radio pre-wire, certified 140-mph
speedometer, tachometer, idle hour meter and much, much more. For those of you who know Crown Victorias, you are probably already aware that the 2004-2011 models are the years to have...2004 was the first year for the higher-horsepower engine. All
Crown Victorias produced from 2004-onward utilized the new, improved,
250-horsepower 4.6 liter V8 engine and are the fastest Crown Victorias
produced due to many changes that were made, mainly in the intake
system. Previously, the Police Interceptor produced 239 horsepower, but
the 2004-newer Police Interceptor increased that number to 250
horsepower due to the addition of a new "Marauder" air intake setup.
This included a new airbox that resembles the Mercury Marauder airbox
(raised airbox lid, deeper bottom), with a new, larger, integrated 80 mm
(3.1 in) mass airflow (MAF) sensor that is part of the airbox lid. This
allows for much more precise flow calibration and reduces the chances
of air leakage. The P71 zip tube (the flexible rubber hose between the
throttle body and MAF outlet) is also used to reduce NVH (noise,
vibration, and harshness) as well as transfer air from the airbox to the
throttle body with minimal flow resistance. In
addition, 2008 was the first year that the Crown Victorias became "flex
fuel capable", meaning they will run on either regular gasoline or E85
ethanol blend. The advantage of this is a much improved fuel system with
premium quality lines, fittings and seals that will outlast the
traditional fuel systems by many years...a big improvement over earlier
models. Crown Victorias like this one are becoming nearly extinct, so here's your opportunity if you've been looking for one of the nicest you will find in a rare and desirable color combination with ultra-low mileage and ultra-low idle hours. This unit is gorgeous inside and out and is clean under the hood as well...the engine compartment is very nice (please see the pictures). I do not slather motors with Armor All to make them appear nicer, or newer, than they are. The picture of this engine compartment is exactly as it was when the car was purchased...extremely clean. These are the Crown Victorias aficionados lust after, and this is an unmolested example. It is very responsive, smooth-shifting and, of course, very fast. This
unit is in absolutely gorgeous condition overall condition, has been
very well-maintained and has little to none of the normal wear and tear
you would expect to find on a used police vehicle. This vehicle, as most
used police vehicles do, may have imperfections...this typically includes; scratches, chips, nicks, minute small
dings, etc....that being said, this car has no known mechanical defects
and it runs and drives as close to new as we have ever seen. Please,
keep in mind, we strive to find the nicest used vehicles possible, but
they are still used vehicles. This 2010 Ford
Crown Victoria Police Interceptor will sell to the high bidder at the
end of the auction, providing the reserve is met. Please complete all
inspections BEFORE bidding...if you win the auction, you own the
vehicle. Winning bidder agrees to forward a 25% partial payment (unless a lesser amount is agreed upon PRIOR to the end of the auction) at end of auction via direct bank wire transfer or by overnighted cashier's check, money order or certified funds. Balance will be due within seven days of end of auction or at time of pick up or delivery, whichever comes first. I will help in any way possible to arrange transportation. I can store the vehicle for up to 90 days, until pick up can be arranged, as long as it's paid for in full. I may be able to deliver this vehicle personally, depending on your location, at a reduced rate. I have been buying, selling and driving unique, specialty vehicles for over ten years now and take pride in offering only low-mileage vehicles that are not "run of the mill", beat-up cars and trucks. I specialize in the hard to obtain cars, SUV's and trucks, Dodge Hemi Charger, Ram 5.9 Cummins and Ford 7.3 Powerstroke Diesel trucks, Chevrolet Impala and Caprice 9C1 and 9C3 police vehicles, collectible and rare cars, trucks and vans. If there are any questions at all, again, please don't hesitate to call me at (614) 893-3857. I will answer all e-mails as quickly as possible. Thanks and good luck! Because of people who bid and do not contact me or pay, I am being forced to implicate a rule pertaining to low-feedback bidders. ANY BIDDER WHO BIDS, WITH A FEEDBACK OF 5 OR LESS, WILL HAVE THEIR BID RETRACTED IMMEDIATELY unless they contact me first, prior to bidding. I hope everyone understands, and I thank our hundreds of happy customers, but a few bad apples have spoiled the proverbial bunch. Thanks for understanding. Please remember, this is a used government vehicle and, although it is as close to it as possible, it is not new. It is, however, in as close to "new" of condition as you will ever find. As such, it will have minute flaws consistent with the miles and age of the vehicle, and with government use. That being said, it is in beautiful shape and runs & looks perfect. It is not what you would typically expect, or what you will find elsewhere for sale. Please, if you want to come and look at it, do so BEFORE bidding...or call me, as always, at 614-893-3857 or e-mail me and I will answer any questions you may have. Thanks! |

An amazing Group B rally car collection heads to auction
Tue, Jan 26 2021Kicking off in 1982, the Group B era spawned some of the most fearsome rally cars of all time. The technologically advanced pioneers of all-wheel drive and turbocharging defined a time when automakers had carte blanche to build machines with unrestricted power, without the burden of homologating a large number of road cars to qualify. The results were sometimes deadly, leading the FIA to ban the class after 1986. Now, a collection of seven Group B monsters is headed across the block in Paris as part of the Artcurial auction, held in partnership with France's famed Retromobile show. The show has been delayed to June, however. There's a 1985 Peugeot 205 Turbo 16, one of 20 Evo II models that helped the company achieve two championships in Group B's short run. This particular example was driven by world champion Timo Salonen at the 1986 Swedish Rally, where it finished seventh due to an oil filter seal failure. Bruno Saby subsequently drove it at the 1986 Tour de Corse and Peugeot entered it at the 1986 Acropolis Rally as well. It's still registered to Peugeot Talbot Sport and represents a French technological achievement, according to Artcurial, comparable to the Concorde or TGV train. Representing Italy are a pair of Lancias in the iconic Martini livery. The Lancia 037 helped Bel Paese clinch its only Group B victory in 1983, after a hard-fought rivalry with Audi. It's one of the few Group B cars that weren't AWD, achieving its success the old-fashioned way, through lightness and superb handling. A second Lancia, a 1986 Delta S4, was the culmination of the Italian firm's later Group B efforts and one of Saby's favorites. While Group B was no more in 1987, the S4 was the predecessor to the Delta Integrale that would dominate WRC from 1987 through 1992. While the collection also includes greats like a Ford RS200, Renault 5 Maxi Turbo, and MG Metro 6R4, the centerpiece is the Audi Quattro Sport S1. The ultimate Group B machine, it introduced all-wheel-drive and turbocharging to the sport. It also employed the wildest use of wings and air dams to generate downforce. Tunable up to 590 horsepower, it could rocket to 60 mph in about three seconds. The car offered for sale came straight from Ingolstadt, a 1988 model built for the Race of Champions of ex-Group B cars. The collection was amassed in the late 80s and early 90s, not long after Group B's dissolution.
Fiat boss Elkann being mentored by... Bill Ford?
Tue, 26 Mar 2013Fiat Chairman John Elkann has been turning to an unusual source for advice on the car business. While speaking during an interview with The Detroit News, Elkann said he often asks Bill Ford Jr. for advice on how to proceed with the turnaround at Chrysler. "It's great to have the opportunity to share this with someone like Bill, who has experienced many things and gone through many things ... especially linked to Detroit." Elkann said.
As the Agnelli family heir, Elkann has inherited a long and fruitful friendship with the Ford family. While Giovanni Agnelli built his first Fiat four years before Henry Ford created his first vehicle, it was Ford that showed Agnelli the benefits of mass production and helped pave the way for what would become the Fiat empire.
Giovanni's grandson, Gianni, helped mentor Bill Ford when he was elected chairman of Ford Motor Company. Now, Ford is returning the favor by helping Elkann navigate the automotive industry's tumultuous waters.
40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
