1993 Lincoln Mark VIII review from North America
"Best used car value out there"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The alternator went out at 73,000 miles The alternator went out again at 80,000 miles, however it was replaced free by the mechanic who replaced it. Buttons on the climate control are cracked. There is a mysterious rattle coming from the right rear of the car that I can't seem to locate. The torque converter has developed a shudder at 84,000 miles.
General comments?
The car is very comfortable and it has 280 horsepower. I always get comments on the well designed interior. The headlights on the 93 to 95's are very poor, most will need to add a set of driving lights.
