 2001 Lincoln LS 3.9L V8-32V


  This is a one non-smoking owner Lincoln LS that we bought for my wife in 2002. It was to replace our 1962 Lincoln continental of the same color. This car has been treated like one of the family since it was new, however we now have too many cars and this one needs a new home at 108,000 reliable miles.


  The car is an '01 LS which is loaded with all luxury options including Advance Trac stability enhancement system, a power moon roof, heated seats and the audiophile ALPINE entertainment system with 6 disc changer and an extra magazine.

 This stylish touring car is loaded with standard features also, which attracted us when the car was sold.  They include 8 way power lumbar seats, auto dim rear view mirror / compass, folding rear arm rest, full wood and leather trim interior in as-new condition, dual stainless exhaust, message center, power tilt/telescope steering column, traction control, fog lamps, autolamp headlamps, independent aluminum front and rear suspension in a hard to find rear wheel drive platform.


 The car is very quick and agile with the independent RWD chassis. I also like the fact that many of the suspension and body parts are aluminum for less weight. We purchased a set of 5 new 17" factory silver star alloy wheels when the car was new and these have been on it for most of it's life. Right now it's wearing some very quiet and good performing Continental DWS tires which I have found to be of very good quality.


  The car has been maintained since new in my shop, we only used synthetic lubricants for the rear diff, automatic transmission and of course the engine which runs like new. I have replaced all of the ignition coils with Motorcraft FORD units as well as the valve covers and gaskets which are problematic on these cars. I have replaced the alternator once with an OEM Motorcraft part and also upgraded the automatic transmission valve body with the Sonnax spring kit to repair this problem area. The interior leather surfaces have been regularly treated with Lexol leather cleaner and conditioner and the hides are still in excellent codition throughout as you can see. There are a few areas that have tightened up from drying in the sun here of Florida and may eventually need attention but the interior is like new! Title is 3rd print, one to Ford Motor Credit, One to me in Massachusetts and one to me in Florida. The 21 records you see are annual inspections, required in Mass as well as only one minor bumper cover incident on the front of the car, see condition / description for details.

Lincoln MKC prototype spied out testing

Wed, 20 Mar 2013

As was the case with the Lincoln MKZ, it appears that Lincoln isn't wasting any time getting its newest model transformed from concept to production form. We just saw the MKC Concept earlier this year at the Detroit Auto Show, and based on these spy shots, it looks like the final touches are being put in place for the 2014 Lincoln MKC crossover.
Sharing its platform with the Ford Escape, we can definitely see some similarities between these two compact crossovers when it comes to the roofline and daylight opening, but through the heavy camouflage, Lincoln's signature split-wing grille can easily be seen and it looks like the concept's taillights will also make it to reality. On the disappointing side, it looks like the integrated exhaust outlets are being ditched for some round outlets, and we can't tell if the production version will keep the Audi-like clamshell rear liftgate.

Consumer Reports says these are the worst new cars of 2014

Thu, 27 Feb 2014

Consumer Reports has announced its annual list of worst vehicles, a cringe-inducing contrast to its list of top vehicles. Ignominiously leading the way in 2014 is Chrysler, which has a staggering seven models listed.
Jeep nearly sweeps the small SUV segment by itself, with its Compass, Patriot and 2.4-liter version of the new Cherokee, while the only midsize sedans listed by CR were the Chrysler 200 and Dodge Avenger. The new Dodge Dart and the Dodge Journey round out CR's condemnation of Chrysler.
Ford is taking heat as well, with the Taurus, Edge and their counterparts from Lincoln all listed as the worst vehicles in their respective segments. Toyota doesn't fare much better, with its Lexus IS, Scion iQ and tC also making the list.

J Mays retiring from Ford design, succeeded by Moray Callum

Tue, 05 Nov 2013

Ford's highly influential head of design, J Mays, has announced that he'll be retiring from his position after 33 years in the industry, 16 of which were at the Dearborn, MI-based company. Upon departure, he'll be succeeded as group vice president of design by Moray Callum. If that last name sounds familiar, yes, he's the brother of Jaguar's Ian Callum.
It's difficult to explain just how big of a role Mays had on not just Ford's design over the years, but on the entire industry. Before heading to Dearborn, Mays worked for Audi, BMW and then Volkswagen, where he was involved in concept cars that paved the way for design icons like the first-generation Audi TT and the Volkswagen New Beetle. As for his Ford resume, it's extensive.
Mays joined the company in 1997 as design director for Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and Mazda, as well as the Premier Automotive Group (Volvo, Land Rover, Jaguar and Aston Martin). He was heavily involved in the Ford Fusion, Focus, Fiesta, Taurus, F-150 and Mustang, while also contributing to concept cars like the Atlas, Evos, 427, Forty-Nine, Shelby GR-1, Lincoln MKZ and the MKC.
