    Question Lincoln Town Cars anyone?

    I am thinking of getting one as a daily driver because my other cars keep costing me way too much just to keep them running.

    I was thinking of used because I probably cannot afford new especially with zero credit.

    Anyone have one and how has it been?

    Keep in mind I will need to get one that still has a warranty or probably 2005+

    Hey Dom,why don't you pick up a CV P71,you seemed to like mine alright.
    There's a red 98 ex fire chiefs car on crownvic.net with less than 90,000 miles on it in nice shape for a good price,it's here in central,il.It ain't a Town Car but it ain't 20 or 30 grand $ either
    Correction,it's a 97 aero with 81,000 miles on it for $2400,here's a link.http://www.crownvic.net/ubbthreads/u...91#Post1677291

    I am thinking about a T/C or about another MGM for replacing my existing daily driver, a MGM LSE 2003. I am driving 40K + miles per year. I would wait one more year, though, as my current MGM still looks healthy at 150K miles.

    Unfortunately, it would be very difficult to find a fresh LSE. That is why I am looking onto the T/C side. Same base, same engine, same gearbox and a priori, same excellent reliability. Besides, easy to tune up to a satisfying level. According to reliability polls, the T/C and MGM made in 2007 are on top. Ultimately, I am also thinking about a second MM. I read that they can reach quite smoothly a consistent mileage.

    I need something that will not break down every month Zack, but if you say it's good I will take your word for it. You're probably the only person I would ever buy a used car from. I'll check it out this weekend or something and we'll talk. Maybe we can work something out if either one of us strikes a deal with one another.

    Anyone else have any info?

    My Marauder was fine until I suped it up and the weak parts started to give out.

    Absolutely love my '93 Dom, same year as Zacks..?

    Anyways, if I weren't getting a bike I would convert my front end to a 95-97 and repaint the whole car. Love it that much.

    Why is it the cool/old cars never last?

    Look for a nice used CM/CV at your local Ford or L&M Dealer.
