Do you like your Eldo, Mark VIII or VII, CTS, Towncar... etc. So much that you'd buy another one of the same model if something were to happen to your current car?

I would... :D
 
I would, I'd trade the Deville for a 98 White Diamond Eldorado, and I'd get another 98 Mark VIII but look hard for the CE ... :C :L
 
I would buy another Lincoln Yown Car in a heart beat no matter what the price. :give :Beer :p :L
 
I've said this so many times since I bought my Mark. Wow! I didn't know what I was buying.

It just looked so good sitting there, when I drove this automobile with 156K and it rode as good as others newer modles with less miles.

I had to buy it. Now I am hooked. Almost obsessed by the thrill of driving it. :L

As soon as I can I will have another. Now it is just to learn more about the Marks and which one or ones would I like to also own. :rolleyes:

Right now I am learning about the Mark VIII as that is what I have. I want to learn more about the VII as they are one hot looking vehicle. It they are anything close to an VIII or better I would like one.

Problem I have now is I have to ask a bunch of bumb questions. :p Yes I am very ignorant to the Mark and green to the auto enthusiast' world. But I can have fun learning. :D
 
Yes I also would buy another one. Great cars!!
Here is my story. I got divorced in 98 and a friend took me in for a year.
He had a 95 Mark viii with 30,000 miles on it. I wanted to buy it but could not aford it so soon after my divorce. He let me drive it when ever I wanted to. I fell in love with that car and had to buy one. About two years later I found my car down in Florida. The people selling it need to get some cash together so they put her car up for sale and the rest is history. I have only put about 5,000 milse on it in a year and a half. It's my sunny day car. :L

The Mark VIII's one of the best all around cars built in the last thirty years. It's quirks are no worse than other cars I've had to deal with and it gives you so much more.
and Damn it looks good.
 
I'm always looking for a good deal on another Mark. I love the cars and enjoy it everytime I drive it. :L
 
I had a Lincoln. What a terrible experience. The car was 2 years old when I bought it with 36k on it. I have to tell you the car was great to look at and nice to drive but I but I never had a good day with the car. The radio broke the first month I had the car, The oil pump drive shaft went 3 times in the 2 years I suffered with the car over a span of two engines.

This was the worst mechanical nightmare I ever owned. After finally getting rid of that forsaken thing I bought a 78' Coupe Deville and drove it to well over 300k without a hitch. I'm not exaggerating. I drove this Coupe from about 100k to over 300k and never worked on the car. Oil changes, tires, brakes but that's about it.

I've never owned anything but Cadillac since. :C

Looks like you had a rare occurance. Sorry to hear that, but don't sell Lincoln short!
 
God yes. I stop and look at every nice TC I see for sell. Thats not to say I wouldn't buy a type of premium luxo european car though (ala mercedes benz s-class) if I had the money. But I'd always love my Towncars.

I've never owned a Cadillac but I know that of the two my mother owned they were the worst mechanical vehicles she had owned. She had to have a new engine put in here '95 deville with 68k miles(which she bought new and took care of). I am sure this is a rare occurance though.
 
Yes

Would definitely buy anouther Cad. My Caddy is a 78 Coupe de Ville even though it's old I love it. It still smells like leather and runs great, all is wrong with it is cosmetic, soon as I get pics yall will see it.

:C
 
Loved my Mark VIII so much I had to buy a VII :L

This has been so much fun what should I get next LOL.
 
Keep that car. You may see in my post that I had one for almost ever. They are rock solid in every way and probably are the best riding caddi out there. Not much on the cornering but hey you couldn't have everything 30 years ago.

How's the body. Paint coming off the trunk lid? Can't wait to see the pics.
:C

:zgreenbou I would definitly buy my cars again. I have a '99 Navigator and a'00 LS and I love the way cadi drivers look at me when I pass them or pullup next to them at a light!
 
Would buy another. Presently have a '97 Town Car--Purchased used with 66k miles--now has 81k miles. Prev car '92 TC bought new, and traded with 109k miles.The only trouble with that car in 11 years of use was POWER ANTENNA, AIR SUSP (REPLACED WITH SPRINGS AT 90K), AND BELT TENSIONER. THE FEWEST REPAIRS ON ANY CAR I HAVE EVER OWNED!!!
 
What's not to like? Best car I ever owned!!!!!! :L
