1988 Lincoln Town Car 5.0 V8 from North America
Summary:
Classic American Luxury
Faults:
I replaced the front brake pads and calipers after a caliper seized at around 66k miles.
I had to replace the alternator after it died at 70k miles.
General Comments:
This was a very comfortable car to drive on long trips, and it had plenty of room in both seats and a huge trunk.
However, it did feel a bit underpowered if you weren't on the highway, as well as very big just driving around town.
The gas mileage was decent for a car of that size, roughly 18 mpg in the city and 23 mpg on the highway.
It handled poorly and lacked traction in snow and rain, but it had a super smooth ride and effortless steering.
It looked beyond cool, and I felt the same way while driving it.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one with the fuel gauge problem. I wish there was a way to actually fix it, even if it means getting it after market.
