1997 Lincoln Town Car 6 Passenger Limousine on 2040-cars
Kenosha, Wisconsin, United States
|
Limousine is in pretty good shape for the year. Has been used up until recently as a back up bar & concert car for our limo fleet. Passenger side large window got broke by some kids in Chicago. Did not have time to find a new window, so we put Lexan in it to keep inside dry. It is fully secure while driving, and does not leak. Needs to be re-tinted as we were hurried to get it fixed for a concert this past summer, and it bubbled.Car does have minimal rust beginning to show, however, could be easily fixed by someone who wants to put a little time into it. Has a 4.6 liter V8 and although it has high mileage on it, still runs and drives extremely well.Automatic transmission shifts properly. Gas gauge inaccurate. Could use a front end alignment. Cruise Control does not work. Tires in good shape. About 50% left on them. Brakes are in good shape, as they were replaced not too long ago. Has a sunroof. Does not leak. Been disconnected since I bought the car 4 years ago. The car has been strictly used as a back up bar concert car, so never have had a need to figure out why it wasn't working. All accessories work in the back. AM/FM/CD player works fine. Seats are in excellent shape, and are not torn or faded. A/C worked very good this past summer, and should still be working just as well. Air Suspension working strong! Car comes with extra parts as well. *Replacement front clip *Replacement grill in excellent condition with hood ornament intact * Replacement outside mirrors (left & right) * Replacement headlight assemblies (left & right) *Replacement tail light assemblies (left & right). Mirrors are already painted white, however the front clip is still grey. It is off of our old 95 Lincoln Towncar that we parted out.
Doors are in very good shape, and are not rusted. However, I do have 4 doors, off of a 1995 Lincoln Towncar if you are interested in them. Asking $200 for all 4. These are also still grey. Would make a great car for someone who wants to make a little extra money taking people out on "pub crawls", concerts, ball games, etc... Or, would also make a nice personal car that you and your friends/family can enjoy. Now, I have really worked very hard at making sure that I have kept a 100% positive feedback rating as a buyer. I do not have much experience as a seller, however, it is extremely important to me that I keep my 100% positive rating. So, I would not be offended, whatsoever, if you would like to come take a look at the car before actually paying for it. If you do not like what you see, then walk away. However, if you keep in mind that the car is 16 years old, I do think that you will really like what you see. If you are coming from outside the area, and need transportation from either O'hare Airport or Mitchell Field (Milwaukee), I would be happy to pick you up at the airport. I would only need to charge the fuel & tax. For O'hare ~ $60 For Milwaukee ~ $40 We have been driving this car up and down the interstates for quite a few years now. It has always treated us well. I see no reason why you would not be able to drive it to your destination... wherever that may be. Obviously, mountain driving may be a bit strenuous on an engine with high mileage on it, but if you were to take her easy, she should do just fine for you. Car still gets 18-20 miles per gallon. I have listed this car locally, so I do reserve the right to end the auction early if it sells. I think that I have remembered to include everything. Please, do not hesitate to contact me with any questions that you may have. I am happy to help! |

Lincoln debuts MKC ads starring Matthew McConaughey
Fri, 05 Sep 2014Lincoln is making the decisive commitment that it wants to improve its brand perception going forward. It can't be cheap to hire A-list talent like Academy Award-winning actor Matthew McConaughey and director Nicolas Winding Refn, best known for Drive, for its new ad campaign for the 2015 MKC crossover, but the company is showing that it's serious about the new vehicle and its future. The first three of these five commercials are just hitting YouTube, and they begin airing on television on September 6.
The Live in Your Moment campaign is all about Lincoln trying to sell not just the MKC to customers but also explain the brand's philosophy. It's one of the oldest luxury automakers around, but hasn't exactly had a glorious history, especially recently. Based on these first ads, we can see that there's a definite focus on philosophizing rather than focusing on the crossover. At times, McConaughey seems just a mustache and a mangled beer can away from reprising his role from True Detective.
The first ad (above) is simply titled Intro and sets the mood and concept for the whole campaign. Bull has McConaughey talking to a longhorn in the middle of a road, and I Just Like It has him explaining his affinity for the brand. Lincoln's full release is available below, and you can view the other ads by flipping through the playlist in the video player above.
Ford rethinking vehicle launch strategy
Tue, 07 May 2013With a new boss at the helm, Ford is looking at new ways to improve its vehicle launches in North America to prevent recent issues that have popped up with models like the Lincoln MKZ, Ford Escape and Ford Fusion. Speaking with Automotive News, Ford's new president of the Americas, Joe Hinrichs, revealed a few ways the automaker plans to avoid early build issues such as the engine fires on certain 2013 Escape and Fusion models and months-long delays for customers to receive their MKZs.
It sounds like the root of the problems may have been Ford's relationship with suppliers compounded by the fact that the product surge came on the heels of the recent industry-crippling recession, and in the AN article, Hinrichs says improvements are being made to reduce problems during the launch of new or redesigned models. Three such improvements that were implemented during the first quarter of this year including more rigorous quality comparisons, better use of computer technology to catch major problems sooner and hiring engineers to work closer with suppliers.
Ford hybrids getting update to improve fuel economy
Tue, 16 Jul 2013Ford has announced that it is introducing "calibration updates designed to improve on-road fuel economy for owners of the 2013 Ford C-Max Hybrid, 2013 Ford Fusion Hybrid and 2013 Lincoln MKZ Hybrid."
We can speculate that these changes are at least due in part to lawsuits over mileage claims of hybrid vehicles. The automaker is enhancing 2013 models starting in August by raising their electric cruising speed to 85 miles per hour from 62 mph, optimizing the use of active grille shutters and the climate control system, shortening the engine warm-up period by 50 percent and reducing electric fan speed to minimize the fan's energy consumption.
It bears mentioning that Ford is doing pretty well in the US electrified vehicle market this year. The company claims to have grown its share in the segment by 12 points to 16 percent while taking a high number of Toyota Prius trade-ins in the process. Conversely, Toyota has experienced a five-percent drop in new-Prius sales over the same period. Additionally, Ford states that it has increased its share of the US vehicle market by one percent this year, more than any full-line automaker.
