Used 1996 Lincoln Continental Consumer Reviews
Oh, Thank you for Extended Warrenty
Bought the car used in April 99, best deal on the lot. Now I know why, it may be a Lincoln, but mechanically its a Ford (Fix Or Repair Daily). In the shop at least once every two months, with expensive repairs. Now the Transmission, Air Bag Suspension System, and Radiator Coolent Motor have all gone out. Best thing the dealer who sold me the car was to insist that I by the extended warrenty, saved me nearly $7000 so far. Expires next year, but I be rid of the car before then, cause I have a better idea, and it won't be a Ford
Dissatisfied Area
My biggest complaint is the cloudinest of the headlight lens. This cuts down considerabily on the candle power of the headlamps. (I've noticed this problem on many Ford products}This should have been a safety item recall. '96 and later models did not have this problem. It has a lot more road noise than my '92 Town Car and '97 Continal Mark VIII.

Love IT!!
Bought at 78K miles. 25MPG. 115K now. Have never had it in the shop except oil changes. Changed brake pads myself, very easily. Great ride. Awesome power. Will fly low. Cream color is a head turner.
Great road car
Great on the road, a little large around town. Nice looking car, an eye-catcher. Avg 27 mpg on the road at 70 mph, 22 over all. I am not wild about the air suspension, and that may be the reason I sell it soon. Have spend almost nothing on repairs, no oil burning, transmission still smooth. Has been a good car.
Good used car
Bought this 1995 Lincoln in April 2001 with 86,000 miles for $6,500. Three years later I have 182,000 miles on it. Average 22 miles to the gallon. Selling it for $1,500. Put out about $1,000 in repairs during the three years. Liked it so much I bought another one with 91,000 miles for $3,800, hope to drive it another three years.
