1989 Lincoln Mk Vii Lsc on 2040-cars
Palm Springs, California, United States
|
This beautiful and rare LSC was purchased three years ago in an Estate Sale, with only 7700 original, one owner miles. The car now has just over 10,000 miles, because it is a joy to own and drive. I have upgraded the AC to 134, added new tires, (due to age of originals), and had a new power window unit installed in the passenger door. Service and regular maintenance maintained regularly at the local Ford/Lincoln dealership. Dealership management and service people believe this to be one of the finest Lincoln's ever built.
The metallic Burgundy finish is as perfect as the day it was built. Never any body or paint work, anywhere. The finish "glistens" in the sun, and draws attention to its presence in todays sea of look alike cars. The chrome is flawless, bright, clear, and has absolutely no pitting, rust, not even a scratch. The overall "fit and finish" is beyond expectation, and would rival most luxury cars being built today. Ford had it right on this model. The headlights, tail lights, and fog lights are all perfectly clear, no oxidation or scratches. The fog lights still wear the factory covers to protect them from stone chips. Because the LSC model had larger tires and standard, BBS wheels, "mud-flaps" were included. They remain wrapped in the original factory package, in the trunk, thankfully, never installed. The BBS wheels are all in perfect condition, no curb rash, no scratches, and no discoloration of the brushed aluminum finish. The interior includes optional "Recaro" black leather seats. There is absolutely no wear, and not a flaw to be found. The original Lincoln floor mats still cover the perfect black carpeting. All electrical accessories work as designed and intended. The smooth V8 perform's, and handles incredibly well. The powerful 5.0 V8 is spirited, and the road handling is much better than nearly any other Detroit product. Curvy mountain roads are a joy, and an unexpected pleasure for an American car of this vintage. There are still a few nice LSC's out there - but its not likely you'll ever see one as fine as this automobile. Car is advertised locally, and could be pulled from auction at any time. Owner will proudly show the car to you personally, or to an appraiser, if you choose. Seller will assist in coordination of shipping. if needed. |

One more Lincoln MKX concept teaser drops before Beijing
Fri, 18 Apr 2014If the teaser video for Lincoln's launch of a new concept at the 2014 Beijing Motor Show wasn't enough for you, the company has now released a shadowy new image on its Twitter page. The vehicle may be a concept for the next-generation MKX, and its launch in China is part of the huge rollout to sell the brand's models there.
The latest photo shows off the concept's lighting, including LED running lights and lit sideview mirrors. The sharp edges of the lights give some hints to its shape. However, Other than clearly being a crossover, not much else is known.
The concept's launch supports Lincoln breaking into the Chinese market. It will begin selling the MKZ and MKC there this fall, as well as a midsize luxury SUV. A fullsize luxury sedan and the Navigator will come later. The company will also build luxury showrooms for the models that will look more like high-end hotel lobbies than car dealers. Scroll down to watch the teaser video.
Lincoln reveals MKC compact crossover ahead of LA debut [w/video]
Wed, 13 Nov 2013It used to be that if you wanted a luxury SUV, you had to go big. Just look at the first high-riders released by some of the major luxury automakers - Audi Q7, Cadillac Escalade, Lexus LX - and you'll see what we mean. But since 2009 the small premium crossover segment has grown a whopping 200 percent, so it's no surprise that each has followed up with smaller luxury crossovers. And this is the latest.
At the other end of the utility spectrum from the Navigator, the new Lincoln MKC is based on the Ford Escape (much as the old pseudo-premium Mercury Mariner was), but completely rebodied and luxed up to put it in another league. Although we're still not sold on Lincoln's family fascia, the grille treatment on the MKC is certainly one of the better variations on the theme to date. The Dart-like rear lights dominate the wrap-around tailgate, and the overall shape looks taut and upscale. The same can be said of the dynamically-designed interior, taking the concept revealed in Detroit earlier this year to production fairly seamlessly.
Power will come from a choice of EcoBoost four-cylinder engines with turbocharging and direct injection: a 2.0-liter with 240 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque, or a slightly punchier new 2.3-liter with 275 hp and 300 lb-ft. Lincoln didn't disclose what transmission they'll be mated to, but did note that the MKC carries the brand's "signature" push-button gear shifter. It comes standard in front drive, but buyers who upgrade to all-wheel drive (or tick the right box) will also benefit from a new adaptive suspension Lincoln calls Continuously Controlled Damping. Other features include an approach-detection system that lights the car up and projects a Lincoln "welcome mat" on the pavement when you get close to the car, and a "bread-crumbing" feature that lets you track where your vehicle has been.
NHTSA closes rollaway investigation into 1.56M Ford SUVs
Mon, 11 Mar 2013It's taken four years of study, but the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has finally closed the books on its investigation into rollaway accusations surrounding 1.56-million Ford SUV models.
The probe, which centered on the 2002-2005 Ford Explorer, 2002-2005 Mercury Mountaineer and 2003-2005 Lincoln Aviator, ends without the federal agency calling for a recall. According to The Detroit News, the investigation was closed due to a "low number of complaints" - NHTSA documented 180 such complaints that resulted in 14 crashes and six minor injuries, but the number of incidents have been slowing. The suspected defect rate for the trucks' automatic transmissions was found to be 4.4 per 100,000 units, and the brake-shift interlock mechanism failure rate was judged to be even lower at 3.4 per 100k.
