1986 Lincoln Town Car review from North America

"My favorite car to this day"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Minor rust, but it's a 1986.

Hail damage on the hood, again, it's 22 years old.

Replaced the battery the day I bought it, the previous owner left it sitting for a week in -40 celsius weather, took the battery out of my previous vehicle and haven't touched it since.

Has been leaking oil for a long time, but I converted from 5w20 to 10w30 and this stopped the massive leak by about 50% or more (1 liter every two weeks or so)

Had the front brakes replaced at 300,000 kms, and now this car stops faster than many new vehicles.

Front suspension squeaks.

General upkeep, tires, oil, etc.

General comments?

I love the car. It goes when you tell it to, it turns with the push or pull of a finger, and has never failed to start for me, regardless of weather (keeping in mind the block heater does not work). The gas mileage is rather terrible, but considering the lack of money I need to put into the car for repairs, it is bearable. The plush seats are more than comfortable enough, and surprisingly, every girl that's sat in it loves it. The motor is starting to get tired at 305,000 kms, but still does the job the way it's meant to. This would be a perfect car to trick out: rebuild the motor, new paint job, etc.
