I am the third owner of this vehicle. It had spent it's entire life in the Fort Lauderdale/Miami area before the second party purchased it. The second owner brought it to Indiana then I purchased the car in April of 2011 and brought it to Illinois. The car is in very clean condition and the underside looks nice. The vehicle has always been parked in the garage since the second owner (I have continued to do the same).

This is the very top of the line Cartier L edition and has all options other than the sunroof. The L is a rare option, indicating the rear seat has 6" more legroom than a standard town car. It comes with several additional options not available in other town cars- upgraded transmission and a rear seat armrest with controls for the sound system, temperature and fan, front passenger seat forward/back, as well as two power points. The rear seat is absolutely cavernous. Adults of well over 6 feet in height are completely comfortable in it.  I have all the original Manuels in their factory leather case. I also have the original window sticker- this car stickered at $50,540 in 2002.

The paint is ivory parchment clearcoat tri-coat, with the interior being light parchment leather. Again, this is a very uncommon color and shines beautifully. The exterior has just a few small parking lot chips, no scratches or dents. There is one small ding in the read bumper (see photo). This vehicle has been cleaned and maintained regularly, including bar clay waxing. The wheels are unique to the Cartier and are 16" chrome. The interior is very nice, with all four seats being heated (2 front, two rear). The leather is soft and supple and all items work. There are also dual lighted vanity mirrors in the rear that fold down out of the ceiling. This vehicle has been a non-smoking vehicle since I have owned it.

The car has front and side air bags, four wheel anti-lock disc breaks, securilock factory anti-theft system, remote keyless entry with illuminated door keypad, smartlocks, all speed traction control, rear air suspension, rear a/c and heat ducts, air conditioning with automatic climate control, power windows with express down drivers, steering wheel audio and climate controls, dual exhaust with higher horsepower output, factory tinted windows, heated power mirrors with memory, rear window defrost, 6" extended wheel base, full position power adjustable front seats, three available programmable garage door opener buttons, electronic compass, auto dimming rear view mirror, alpine audio system with dsp, rear seat mood lighting, heated rear seats, rear seat 4 way headrest, rear seat vanity packs, full size spare tire, trunk mounted alpine 6 cd changer with subwoofer, analog dash clock, trip computer, valet lock for trunk, locking gas door with remote release, adjustable gas pedal with memory, interior wood trim, special Cartier floor mats. It comes with both keys and key fobs. There are two memory settings for the mirrors, seat positions, and pedal.

The car runs and drives well and looks very nice both exterior and interior. The mileage is good, especially considering the size of the car. I average 21-22 combined city and highway, with a high of 28 mpg on highway. I have put 20,000 miles on the car in just under two and a half years. I've changed the oil using Schaffers Synthetic oil every 5,00 miles. The air filter was changed every 7,500 miles and is new. Previous owner put new air suspension bags on it and used the premium limo duty bags, which should be good for another 100000 miles. The tires are new Michelins.

I Have all maintenance records since I have owned it. I have put new brakes and rotors front & rear w/ ceramic pads, sway bar link kit, R&L upper & lower ball joints, R&L, and new tires at 101,600 miles.

As mentioned, this was a warm weather Florida car for most of it's life and it shows. Overall the car is in excellent condition, with mileage only averaging about 10,000 per year. The escutcheons on the passenger door handles have chrome blemishing, which I was told was due to the direction it was typically parked in Florida. I have new handles, but have not installed them (see photo). The drivers side ones are fine. It's been a dependable, comfortable, and classy ride.

You are welcome to look at it in person. Please contact me with any questions.

A $500 deposit is due within 24 hours of purchase, with the balance payable in seven days. Buyer is responsible for pickup or arranging his/her own shipping if necessary. I will store it for a maximum two week period, unless other arrangements are made prior to purchase.

 

*This vehicle is being sold locally as well; therefore, the seller reserves the right to cancel ebay listing at anytime.

Lincoln 'not true luxury' yet, says Ford design chief

Wed, 28 Aug 2013

Lincoln is "not true luxury," according to Ford's design boss, J Mays. His statements come from a story in The Detroit News that saw candid language on the issues facing Ford's troubled premium brand. Notably, there's a need for a strong character, with Mays saying, "Every brand needs to have a DNA and a unique selling point and things in the vehicle that make you think, 'That's that particular brand.'"
With a range of rebadged Fords, it's not hard to see why that DNA is missing. Mays hinted that a full recovery for Lincoln will be a ten-year process, that's been kicked off with the MKZ sedan. While that car is still largely a Ford Fusion under its extremely pretty wrapper, it's the first Lincoln in some time to inject its own unique take both through the exterior styling and through interior features, such as the vertical, pushbutton gear selection.
Some analysts weren't so certain about Mays' 10-year estimate. Jim Hall of 2953 Analytics thinks it'll be more like 30 years before Lincoln can show a true return to form. The issue, as Hall explains it, is that, "luxury has a degree of exclusivity," that Lincoln just doesn't have. Michelle Krebs from Edmunds adds, "it's definitely a wanna-be luxury brand," comparing the troubled American brand with Infiniti and Acura, two other brands that have struggled to find their place in the luxury market.

Lincoln Chauffeur service will drive you around and do your shopping

Wed, Apr 12 2017

Lincoln is launching a unique service in Miami this year called Lincoln Chauffeur, and it does exactly what you'd expect. Any Lincoln owner can request someone via an app to come to their house and drive him or her wherever they'd like. That driver will then drive the car back. Lincoln pointed out this will allow other household members to use the car, and even helps avoid having to pay for parking when going to the airport. A representative said that a driver could be sent to a bar or restaurant to pick up a car left in favor of a cab after drinking. In addition to driving you to a location, the driver can also go and fill up your Lincoln with fuel and run other errands. Need some groceries? Your Lincoln driver can do that. And the Lincoln drivers are employed and vetted by Lincoln. If you find a driver you like, you can also request that person and Lincoln will try to accommodate your request. The service is currently in the pilot stage and only available in Miami. The next city that will get access to the service is San Diego. However, the plan is to continue expanding. It's also available for all Lincoln owners, new and old, not just members of Lincoln Black Label. Buyers of any new Lincoln will be given the equivalent of eight hours free in the service. This is a significant perk, since Lincoln said the estimated cost is $30 per hour of use at the current pilot pricing. Related Video:

May 2016: FCA wins, Ford and GM stumble on weak car volumes

Wed, Jun 1 2016

The May 2016 sales numbers are in, and it looks as though FCA is getting some vindication for boldly cancelling two slow-selling car models. Meanwhile, Ford saw overall sales dip and GM's May volume took a big dive versus the same month in 2015. While Marchionne's decision to axe the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Dart has drawn criticism as being short-sighted, it's working for FCA so far. Although the Dart and 200 aren't out of production yet and no capacity has been shifted to crossover or trucks, May's numbers show that the emphasis on Jeep and Ram models makes sense right now. FCA's US sales rose 1 percent last month compared to May 2015, putting the year-to-date total at 955,186 vehicles, an increase of 6 percent compared to the same period last year. Standouts included the Jeep Renegade, Compass, and Patriot, and the Fiat 500X. Ram pickup sales were down 3 percent. And your fun fact is that Alfa Romeo sales were up precisely 10 percent, for a total of 44 4Cs sold versus 40 in the same month last year. At FoMoCo, the Ford brand took a hit to the tune of 6.4 percent from May 2015 to 2016, registering 226,190 sales last month. Lincoln showed improvement on its modest numbers, going from 9,174 to 9,807, a 6.9 percent increase. Overall, Ford was down 5.9 percent for the month to 235,997; despite the slump, year-to-date total Ford sales are up 4.2 percent to 1,112,939. Strong sellers included Escape, Expedition, F-Series, and Transit - big stuff. Most small and/or efficient models (Fiesta, Focus, Fusion, C-Max) saw sales slides. Fusion sales were also down, likely due to effects of model changeover to the freshened 2017 model. Ford has promised four new crossovers and SUVs by 2020 and if things keep trending this way the company will be able to sell them, but things could change in the next four years. GM saw the worst of it for domestic brands. Retail and fleet sales were down for each of the four divisions, with the May 2016 total dropping 18 percent to 240,450 vehicles. GM's year-to-date sales are down 5.0 percent in 2016 to 1,183,705. Both the Sierra and Silverado were down significantly, and the majority of Chevy, Buick, GMC, and Cadillac nameplates saw sales decreases, with both small cars and larger utilities included. Not even big stuff could help GM this month, it seems. We'll have more on the rest of the industry's May sales as those figures trickle in.
