v8mad0's new ride........

Postby v8mad0 » Sun Mar 18, 2012 0:07 am

After selling the day-van 2 weeks ago, I picked this up last week. Its a 96 Mercury Grand Marquis LS 4.6

Had one owner out in Miami from new who imported her when he moved here in 2003, he kept her till 2009 when she was sold to the chap I got her from, she has full history from new, all old MOT's import papers everything, drives like new.

I have the original wheels as well, I can't make my mind up if I like the slot mags or not, I think I would like them more if the front tyres were white lettered.

Looks tidy Craig.

I'm in agreement. Not sure if I like the wheels on the car.

However, it does give it the "sleeper" look so everyone will try and have you away from the lights! :whistle:

They may actually suit the car more if it was a different i.e. darker colour

Like the motor :thumbright: Not sure bout the wheels either :?: You'll have to try the stock ones and see which you prefer :?:

And you know when you decide to sell.... keep me in mind :whistle:
Trying is the first step towards failure....

Looks nice. What's the interior like?

The car looks good
The wheels look good on their own
IMO, together, no, they do not work at all.
