I am selling a 2003 Lincoln LS V8 with 144,426 miles. I purchased the car November 27, 2009 at the Auto Stop Dealership in St. Louis, MO. According to the salesperson, an older gentlemen traded the vehicle making me the 2nd owner. Per the DMV Title Receipt, the mileage at the time of purchase was 21,355. As a prior District Manager, most of the miles on this vehicle are highway miles due to the distance traveled for work. Even being 12 years old, this car handles, drives and rides like a dream! I have almost all maintenance/repair invoices for the vehicle dating back to 2010 and would be happy to provide copies. Listed below are the details necessary to make an informed decision: CONDITIONVehicle did pass safety and emissions inspection June 2015 and have paperwork to prove. All electric works in vehicle and have additional valet key for new owner. Housing around thermostat is leaking. Has been repaired twice and mechanic cannot find source of the problem. He thinks pressure is building in the engine, causing the thermostat housing to crack and leak. Two rock dents on hood about the size of a nickel. Missing original floor mat on passenger side. Top rung of grill is missing. Front license plate holder is cracked at the bottom but does not interfere with license plate installation.Front light covers are foggy (film)...need to be cleaned Ford dealership replaced transmission in 2014 with rebuilt Ford Transmission. Local mechanic installed a brand new radiator in April 2015. Trunk lining is hanging.Three spots are missing paint; rear quarter panels and front driver side bumper (see pics.) Some typical wear on the leather seats. KEY FEATURES Cherry Bomb muffler added by first owner to provide richer engine sound.Transmission is 5 speed shiftable automatic Front dual zone A/C Garage door transmitter (Homelink)Heated AND Air Conditioned front seatsIlluminated entry Rain sensing and speed sensitive wipers Front and rear reading lights Keyless entry (will provide code to new owner) OWNER HISTORY I am the 2nd owner (as far as I know) SHIPPING/PAYMENT $1,000 deposit through Ebay, required within 48 hours of auction close. Remaining balance must be paid via cashier's check, money order or cash if being delivered locally. If uShip is being utilized, remaining balance must be paid via PayPal before vehicle is picked up. This vehicle is available for local pick-up in a public place such as the police department, DMV, bank, etc. Additionally, if uShip is being utilized, simply review the available shipping options, choose the option that best suits your needs, and have your vehicle delivered by a customer-rated uShip service provider. REASON FOR SELLING VEHICLE After being downsized last year, I no longer have the finances to even make the smallest repair. Since my mechanic cannot find the source of the thermostat housing leak, I cannot afford to continue to repair it.
