1994 Lincoln Mark VIII review from North America
"VIII the great"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front air suspension began with small leak, but now doesn't work at all.
Passenger side window is starting to show a glitch.
Everything else is candy. Can't wait for the front suspension to get done (thank GOD for ebay) so I can get back to my highway shuffle.
General comments?
Great car for the money. I'm sure glad they don't hold value like the Germans and some Japanese cars do. Because I paid $2300.00, I feel like I robbed the previous owner.
The only thing I could ask for would be heated seats, but the HP and TORQUE makes up for that. This thing really turns heads (green with tan leather) I just smile because I've got no car payment and it can run or out run almost any car on the street at any price, especially these little rice machines with more than $2300.00 worth of upgrades.
Needless to say she's a highway shuttle - you ask and she gives, with style that is still not dated. If I only get a year out of it, I got my money's worth. TLC is all they need.
