Used Lincoln Mark VII for Sale near Roswell, NM

This car is a blast to drive for daily use. It is quick and nimble when it needs to be but rides like a Lincoln should when you want it to. Its not the most spacious thing, but for a 2 door car it holds 4-5 people rather nicely.

My first "real" car and man it was pretty sweet. Anti-lock brakes, travel computer, self-adjusting suspension, auto-dimming mirrors, etc. were pretty technologically advanced features for back in 1985. Expensive as hell to fix when they broke though, and they did break (suspension, mirror and anti-locks). Great ride, plus the performance was pretty good for a car of it's size.

I have always liked the styling of the mark vii's. This one being low miles and southern makes it a dream to drive. Just floats down the road. Plenty of power. Comfort is there too. Its not a all out powerhouse like some cars I own but is still respectible and it draws attention.

I have to say that the Mark was one of the most attractive cars ever produced. Living in New England, most of them rotted out because of road salt because they were made without a frame and with very little steel. They are fairly rare up here. The car is very fast and can still keep up with the modern cars on the road today. However, the handling cannot compare. The ride quality is okay because of the (problematic) air springs on all four wheels. I can't recommend this car for daily use because of its age and problematic electronic systems -- You will need to have some intermediate understanding of auto mechanics in order to own one of these cars yourself or you will probably face steep prices at the repair shop. Common problems with the anti-lock brakes (First car ever produced with ABS and composite headlights-- 6 months before the corvette), air suspension, and the AOD transmission which doesn't like abuse and neglect. These are beautiful, luxurious and sporty cars but require a loving owner. This is a great car for anyone who is passionate about American automotive history and wants to invest in a fun weekend car. They can be found in alright condition for as little as $1500 and they can be totally worth it if you get one that has been taken care of and hasn't been beat on. I wish Lincoln/Ford/Mercury never stopped producing REAL cars or I'd own a brand new one today.

Repairs have been very minimal. It has always handled very well with an excellent and comfortable ride. I have always felt very safe in driving this car as it sits very well on the road. The braking has been excellent with minimal repair throughout the years.
