Villager Ls No Rust Or Dripping, Current Az Reg, Runs Good, Very Nice Interior on 2040-cars
Tempe, Arizona, United States
1995 Mercury Villager LS minivan - a seven (7) passenger wagon. Same as a Nissan Quest (see the blurb below) with a bullet-proof, non-interference Maxima 3.0L V-6 engine and four-speed automatic transmission. (see photos). Van runs and drives better than it looks from the front.
The Villager LS unit came standard with Power Steering, Tilt Wheel with built-in Cruise Controls, Digital Instrument Cluster, Alloy Wheels, ABS 4-Wheel Brakes, Privacy Glass, Drivers Air-Bag, Power Side-view Mirrors, Driver and Passenger Power Seats and upgraded interior with plush upholstery fabric which is non-smoker and in very good condition. There are no tears or excessive wear. Also included are the factory original documents, owner's manual and "Villager" embossed zippered pouch (see photos). Nice stereo system. Rear passenger has audio system controls, dual headphone jacks, Heat/AC controls and adjustable registers. Rear lift-gate has a reach-in feature; the rear window glass also lifts up to provide access to the rear cargo area. No rust, leaks or dripping fluid. This Villager has the optional center seating which consists of removable Captain's chairs with fold-up arm rests. The rear bench seat folds up and can be re-positioned on the recessed tracks (built into the carpeted floor), even up against the back of the front Captain's chairs. This provides a huge cargo area which is accessible from the rear hatch or side entrance and ample space for a camping mattress in a five (5) passenger vehicle. The rear bench seat also folds down to provide a table feature which can be used in the rear or midship area for dining, game playing and as a writing surface with no-slid beverage recesses. Roof rack is complete, fully adjustable and functional. Here are a few notes on the Mercury Villager minivans: Villagers are the product of a joint venture between Ford and Nissan and were built at Ford's Ohio Assembly Plant in Avon Lake, Ohio. Manufactured and sold by Ford for model years 1993-2002, it is a re-badged and slightly re-designed variant of the Nissan Quest. It was Mercury's first of only two minivan models ever featured (second was Monterey). These vehicles have almost nothing in common with Ford's Aerostar, Windstar or Freestar minivans. Villagers were available in three trim levels: GS, LS (luxury/sport), and the Nautica Special Edition. Villagers come with the Nissan 3.0 liter, V-6, 151 horsepower engine. This modified VG30E engine is paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission and is the same drive train that the highly renown and reliable Nissan Maxima came with for many years. It is a free-wheeling, non-interference engine. This means that in the event of a complete engine failure while driving, the driver will still have braking and steering power. Furthermore, because it is a non-interference engine, repairs are NOT likely to reach the excessive and extreme costs involved in replacing bent, cracked or damaged valves, pistons, guides, heads, etc. -- the usual result of an otherwise simple failure/repair issue such as a broken serpentine belt, seized alternator or leaky cooling system -- that occur with an "interference motor". Mercury Villager chassis was sophisticated compared to other minivans from the '90s; its modern all-coil suspension gave it a more car-like ride and better handling than its competitors. |

eBay Find of the Day: Mercury Marauder two-door convertible
Wed, 31 Aug 2011Never underestimate what you'll see on eBay Motors. Take this unique creation, for example. Near as we can tell, it's the same 2002 Mercury Marauder that was modified into a two-door convertible by Ford for the 2002 Chicago Auto Show. According to the seller, this car still boasts its Eaton supercharger bolted to a 4.6-liter V8 engine, and at the time of its debut, the engine was rated at a lofty 335 horsepower. We have a hard time believing that the extra ponies would do much to offset the weight of the additional frame stiffeners and top mechanism on the car, however.
The vehicle is currently offered for sale by a dealer in Lansdale, Pennsylvania, though the listing is mum on how the convertible managed to make its way from Ford's Windy City show stand into the seller's inventory. If you like what you see, the machine can be yours for the princely sum of $75,000 or best offer. Head over to eBay Motors to take a gander at the listing.
Ford recalls 1.9m cars and crossovers for defective airbags
Wed, Jun 1 2016The Basics: Ford is recalling a total of 1,898,728 vehicles to replace defective Takata front passenger-side airbags. This includes the 2007-2010 Ford Edge, 2006-2011 Ford Fusion, 2005-2011 Ford Mustang, 2007-2011 Ford Ranger, 2007-2010 Lincoln MKX and 2006-2011 Lincoln MKZ, Zephyr and Mercury Milan vehicles built in North America. The Problem: The defective airbags have been linked to ruptures that can send metal fragments at the passenger, due to deteriorating propellant. Injuries/Deaths: Ford claims it's not aware of any injuries due to the problem, but rupturing Takata airbags have been linked to a series of serious injuries and deaths. The Fix: Dealers will replace the passenger-side frontal airbag at no charge to the customer. If you own one: Look out for a letter from the manufacturer to arrange service at your local dealer.

Watch as an out-of-control car demolishes gas pump
Tue, May 2 2017A Baltimore area man was fighting for his life Tuesday after crashing his car into a gas station. According to WBAL, the unidentified 64-year-old lost control of his vehicle for unknown reasons around 4:55 a.m. May 1 in Parkville, Md. The 2007 Mercury Milan careened downhill, ramped over a curb, and smashed full-speed into a gas station pump. The car then flipped and came to rest against one of the station's canopy support pillars. Don Karbowniczek, owner of a service station across the street, told WBAL he was shocked there wasn't more damage. It's also surprising that the car even made it to the pumps, as it had to thread past a coin-op vacuum machine, the station's sign, a utility pole, and a traffic light pole. "It came right through, took some of our bushes out, just trimmed them for us, and how it got through and flip the way it did, I don't know. From what I see on the marks, it had to go airborne and just come down on the pump," Karbowniczek said. Thankfully there was no fire or explosion. Gas pumps have shear valves - safety devices that immediately cut the flow of gasoline when a pump is damaged. The driver was rushed to a hospital with life-threatening injuries, and was in critical condition. Police theorized the driver may have become stricken with a health issue when he lost control.
