The benefit of driving this Lincoln is really like that of driving a modern car. You just get in and set the cruise control and get to your destination relaxed. It's an absolute pleasure to drive. For those who have never driven one of these cars, they ARE every bit as opulent, elegant and smooth as they look. They are and remain unbelievably comfortable and relaxing. Nothing drives or handles like these cars do/did. This collectors car is in beautiful original condition. Its a classic that can be enjoyed and preserved at the same time. That's the fun of owning a classic car. I think it's probably one of those cars that's undervalued and underappreciated by a lot of owners because the Eighties had such a bad reputation for quality. With this car, there is no lack of quality at all. It's really a finely built car.

Will be sold WOF'd and Registered.

Waimak Classic Cars is not aware of any specific defects with the vehicle, however (a) such a vehicle being a classic vehicle may have mechanical breakdowns, electrical failures at inconvenient times and maintenance costs being part of and parcel of ownership of a classic vehicle; (b) reliability is a combination of the particular nature of the classic vehicle, how it is being driven, how it has been maintained, and to a certain extent luck; (c) because of the age of the vehicle, and its propensity to rust, it is likely that the vehicle would have been fully or partially restored, or at least repainted at some point in its life, maybe even more than once. Waimak Classic Cars does not know, and cannot give advice on how good any restoration work on the vehicle had been.

The Purchaser acknowledges that the vehicle is being sold as a classic car; that in terms of the Act and the nature of the goods, the vehicle is an old car, bike or boat, that may have visual and hidden faults, unlike a new motor vehicle.

While the Purchaser is entitled to rely on statements given by Waimak Classic Cars as being correct, where goods such as vehicles are concerned, with so many moving parts and rust being an issue with older vehicles; a Purchaser who chooses not to seek independent professional assistance when assessing the quality of what they propose to buy is considered as buying at their own risk, and if the vehicle then turns out to be of less than the represented quality, or not up to the Purchaser's expectation, or in the Purchaser opinion not fit for purpose; then the Purchaser is considered to have contributed to their own loss and should not expect any refunds or betterment from Waimak Classic Cars.
