:***: That's like right in my back yard. Prolly 10 minutes away at most.
Heck I prolly even blew past that ride at least once.

I'd love to have one of those. Now, is there any parts available on this car.

I'd love to have that. What a unique vehicle. The BMW diesels are great, too.

Neato!

Guy on fourdoorbronco had one.

I'd run it.

I know of one sitting at a diesel shop about 5 miles from me. The shop owner knows what he has and wont sell it.

actually, the parts support for the 524td motor is still quite strong...but you have to hit the dealer....BMW that is. Dunno how it preforms in the Lincoln, but the 524td is a rocket in the BMW chassis compared to the MBZ diesels.

Wonder what kind of fuel economy it gets...?

They have a pretty decent supply of parts for the engine at www.thepartsbin.com and from experience from owning a handful of oddball German diesels, ebay germany is a goldmine for parts ( ebay UK has quite a few too ) Still cheaper after shipping since you don't have a few extra middle men marking up the prices to get to a vendor over here.
