Depends on the weather, does not go out in the snow. My 26 mile commute is through the country.
I like the style. Also like going to a local show or cruise and I'll have the only M7 there.

- I dislike the suspension problems this car is plagued with, the deterioration of the bucket seating. The seats aren't a problem in my current LSC(alternate factory seating option installed) but was a problem in my brothers 89 LSC. And from what I can tell a big problem for A LOT of owners.

-I drive it 5k miles a year or so on combined highway and city. It's taken off the road in winter so it is a 3 season car at best. I'm usually a fast and aggressive driver.
-I love the styling, handling, sport/luxury balance. I also love the air suspension, ABS, and all the other gadgets everyone else wants to rip out.
-Thin leather, E6 heads, lack of rear seat head and leg room, and lack of trunk space.

Mine badly needs front and rear control arm bushings, the driver side window and sunroof deosn't work, the heater core is dying, and the ABS light just came on. I am missing some of the interior and exterior plastic trim and the headliner could use refreshing.
BUT Despite all of this :wrench :L :wrench

1986_MarkVII November 6th, 2005, 09:21 PM Polling Mark VII Owners
Year / Model: 1986 Lincoln Mark VII -- Bill Blass
Gender: Female 29 :steering
Miles Per Day: Commute car. About 40 round trip, freeway.
What I like best about Mark VII: My attitude.
The car was a Christmas present. I hated it and wondered how I would be able to dump it on someone else. It was ugly! It had rat droppings on the floor, dead wasps on the back sill, and cob webs everywhere. Dirty, disgusting, filthy, wreck from neglect. The paint peeling off the hood, roof, and trunk lid. Also, the upholstery cracked and chunks missing. Headiner, back window silll, and quarter panels gone. Steering wheel, plastic trims, and door panels, looked like a greese monkey had run amok throughout the car.
I pulled the seats out, installed a new covering for the back window, quarter panels and head liner. Steam cleaned carpets. Cleaned and polished the outside.
Now, I look at her and smile because she is a class act with subtle lines, long snout, gleaming chrome. I enjoy the smooth and comfortable ride. It is like floating on a marshmellow. I also like the quiet motor with strong accerllation.
What I don't like about my Mark VII: Money pit to restore. Difficult finding replacement parts. Too many problems and too difficult to diagnose and fix.

The cost of parts are to much, and to much bull in the engine bay which makes it hard to clean and work on. (Much different then my old Plymouth)
