Second Owner, All Orignal Under 80,000 Miles True Surviver Car on 2040-cars
Prince Frederick, Maryland, United States
this is a beautiful example of an mostly original Lincoln MarkIV. Garaged kept always, lost storage two years ago but always covered, never seen snow, caught in rain a few times while driving. I've owned the car the last 15 years and knew the orig owner personally, his name plaque is still on the dash. This car has always been driven and cared for lovingly, pampered and maintained. I bought the car with about 62000 miles and now has 79905 miles. Over the last 15 years it was only driven on special occasions or nice days in summer it has been a toy and a joy when you want to show off because it attracts attention and lots of it. It's never been a "daily driver" over it's 38 years for me or the orig owner. I have a lot of paper work on this car, orig owners manual, plastic owners card from dealer for service, records from emission station, when that was still necessary etc. The originality of the car is impressive, I reluctantly replaced the carb last year to a edelbrock with elec.choke, the car now gets better gas mileage and a power difference I can really feel. I also replaced the water pump, fuel pump , shocks and brake pads on all four disc brakes. Other than that and a hose or belt as needed it is all as it came from Lincoln. Amazingly the upper radiator hose has never needed replacing. The a/c has been converted to 134a and works as it should the autotemp system is fully operative as is the power antenna, stereo radio w/8 track player, cruise control, power seats both sides with passenger recline, the clock works but not always. The minor rust issues have always been seen to properly and touched up as they were beginning. Mechanically the car is dependable uses no oil and leaves no fluids on the ground, the trans is smooth and shifts crisp as it should. the vinyl roof I would have replaced, I use liquid vinyl to keep it looking as good as it does now. I am putting a low reserve on this car and hope I can get some pics up but you can call me at 202-841-5927 that's my business cell phone and deal with any questions or requests you may have. call skip at 2028415927. A deposit of $1000.00 (not refundable) within 24hours of sale, balance within 7 days certified funds please. I will help with shipping if I can. Bid with confidence, this is a fine classic car and you won't be disappointed.

Lincoln poised to double MKZ Hybrid production
Thu, 18 Jul 2013The Lincoln MKZ Hybrid has been something of a hit for Ford since the beginning, exceeding the company's modest projected 15-percent take rate for more than two years (we say "modest" because that still means an overwhelming majority of Lincoln customers are passing up on the gas-electric powertrain even though it costs the same as the standard model). Either way, Lincoln builds 700 MKZ Hybrids at its plant in Mexico each month, but has sold 715 of them in each of the past three months. That's why, according to a report in The Detroit News, when the restyled 2014 MKZ Hybrid arrives (non-hybrid pictured), Ford is doubling production compared to 2013. Instead of the hybrid model being 20 percent of production, the new hybrid will make up 40 percent.
Ford is doing well with hybrids in general - its portion of the electrified vehicle segment jumping 12 points in a single year to 16 percent. Assuming Ford doesn't change the pricing strategy (along with the changes Ford is making to calibration to improve fuel economy), the sedan could continue to "[show] other luxury hybrids how it's done" when it goes on sale later this year.
Consumer Reports explains its disdain for infotainment
Thu, 20 Mar 2014One of the perks of reviewing all manner of cars and trucks is that we're exposed to all the different infotainment systems. Whether Cadillac's CUE, Chrysler's UConnect, BMW's iDrive or MyFord Touch, we sample each and every infotainment system on the market.
Not surprisingly, some are better than others. It seems consumers have come to a similar consensus, with Consumer Reports claiming that Ford and Lincoln, Cadillac and Honda offer the worst user infotainment experiences. Not surprisingly, you won't find much argument among the Autoblog staff.
Take a look below to see just what it is about the latest batch of infotainment systems that grinds CR's gears. After that, scroll down into Comments and let us know if you agree with the mag's views.
Lincoln bringing in MKZ Hybrid over rollaway risk
Mon, 30 Dec 2013Federal safety standards require that every new car needs to have the brake depressed in order to shift it out of Park. But the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has found fault in the transmission range sensor on certain examples of the Lincoln MKZ Hybrid, allowing the car to be shifted out of Park without first depressing the brake. The fear is that with this condition, affected vehicles may be unintentionally pulled out of Park, resulting in a possible rollaway. That safety concern has prompted parent Ford Motor Company to issue a recall.
The issue pertains to 7,153 examples of the MKZ Hybrid built between April 26, 2012 and September 24, 2013, covering the 2013 and 2014 model years. As a result, Ford will notify owners to bring their MKZs into their local Lincoln dealer to have the Powertrain Control Module software updated in order to rectify the problem. See the full recall notice below for details.
