1996 Lincoln Town Car Executive Series Collectors ed 4.6 liter V8 from North America
Summary:
The Lincoln Town Car is quite possibly one of the best road machines ever made at any price.
Faults:
Cracked Intake manifold, @ 120,000 miles.
ABS brakes constantly pulsate hard when braking, even after repair.
Door hinges causing door fit to sag badly.
Carriage lights difficult to replace or find.
Hood ornament will not stand up straight.
Chrome plating is very pitted on the front grille.
Beginning to use oil more and more.
The electric window assembly on the drivers side door failed.
Cruise control assy on the steering wheel fell out.
General Comments:
This is a solid motorcar. It handle all types of traffic and road conditions well. My wife and I commute 50 miles, one way, and driving to and from the city, especially in the northeast, where aggressive driving seems to be the norm, this car allows us to unwind and handle stressful driving conditions with a high level of comfort and confidence.
We enjoy the elegant ride it gives us. With a trunk capacity that is second to none, we can manage to get our supplies to and from our yacht with relative ease. That include carrying additional passengers with us.
This car offers great visibility and adjusts well to both me and my wife and our various driving manners. It can jump like a tiger or purr like a kitten, depending on your needs.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes

I just had the air suspension replaced with coil springs from strutmaster. The results are excellent! Forgot to mention in "problems with car" that the lumbar support fails to hold air and collapses in about a minute.
