Great '95 Lincoln Mk.VIII

This has been a great car! I've had it 4 yrs, now at 118K. Only drawbacks have been the dim headlights and it warps the front disks. Just changed the plugs and wires and it's running like new! All the power you could ask for and great mileage too, averages 22 mpg, gets 28 hwy. I've changed trans. fluid, change oil regularly and hope to drive it for a long time!

Mark 8

This is a great car! I've only had it a few months, but I'm pretty happy with it! I have been looking at the Mark 8 since I was in my 20's, and had the chance to get one (now that I'm 35!). It wasn't really my first choice when I started car shopping, but more like my 4th or 5th, you know, because today they are becoming harder to find with age. (My goal in mind was to find a full size auto with 2 doors and a V-8!) Once I found one, in a very popular color, red, I was really impressed! Lincoln has out done itself again with this model! Being the previous owner of a 2 door Mark 6, I can see that the 8 is light years ahead! It's too bad that this model is out of production today.

The best part of this car is it's acceleration...Like a rocket. The worst part is the headlights...I would be better off with two flashlights it's also a little tight in the driver's seat and the passengers seat but i'm 6'2" and need the height and width.

this car consistently get's 26-28 miles per gallon, that is at 70 mph and ac running. We average over 400 miles a tank on 18 gallons. Great power for passing on 2 lane roads, we currently have 88k on this automobile and i have no intention of getting rid of it.

This is a fun automobile! You'll think this was the smartest purchase of an automobile you've ever made. I liked the performance of my old 5.0 Mustang, but this car out performs it and won't beat you up on a long trip.

A driver's car

Quite simply, the Mark VIII has no equal. Even though the last one rolled off the assembly line in 1998, no car (before or since) can compare. It is a luxurious, powerful, understated, and timeless work of automotive art. Try any rear-wheel drive luxury coupe, and then go for a drive in the Mark. If the power doesn't sell you, then the handling will. If the handling doesn't interest you, then the myriad creature- comforts certainly will. And fuel economy? Try 17(city)/27(highway)!! Thanks to the passage of time and the miracles of depreciation, so much can be had for so little. Find one, drive one, and buy one. Miles of smiles are guaranteed.

This car is a great bang for the buck used. There is no other purchase that will give you as much car as this one.
