Hi everyone, Im 21 and im considering buying a continental. Most ppl my age like sporty/japanese car but i definatley prefer large luxury sedans. Ive found several 97-99 continentals on autotrader that are affordable for me ($7k-$9k and under 75k miles) but i have some questions....
1. Im in college and I dont have alot of money to spend on repairs because I can only work part time. Are continentals problematic compared to most cars?? (keep in mind im getting something with around 75kmiles). I need something reliable. Im trying to research but im getting some conflicting information,,,JDpower and assosciates rates lincoln as one of hte most reliable car while consumer report says its one of the least relaible??
2. If something does go wrong, are lincolns overly expensive to get repaired? Right now I have a saturn and my parents do not want me to get a lincoln because they say it will be much more expensive to repair compared to what i have now, should something go wrong. I dont mind paying a little extra but Im not sure if it will cost a little more, or alot more.
Thanks for any help!
