For all you V8 fans out there I have decided to sell my unusual Lincoln. I believe it to be the only RHD V8 built for the UK so it is something special. Here is the link.

Hi, I've just e-mailed you but realised I should have asked here!
Can you let me have some idea of the specs? 0-60, top speed, fuel consumption?
Cheers
So what was it like to drive compared to the 75V8 John?

Good Luck. I have been trying to sell my Camaro Z28 for months with no success.

In answer to Tim's question about comparison to the Rover 75V8. In a word it is "livelier". It's a bit bigger though, so the handling is not so taught. Unfortunately, it doesn't have the Mustang burble, so it is a bit more sophisticated - if that's the right word.
Spec details as follows
Engine 3.9Litre (3950cc) V8 32V Auto
Power: 252hp @ 6100
Torque: 267lbs @ 4300
Fuel 17 mpg (US gallons) city
23mpg highway.
I have only used the car on local trips recently and the computer currently shows 20.4 mpg
Length 193.9ins (4925mm)
Width 73.2 ins without mirrors (1859mm)/ 80.1ins with mirrors
Performance: Top speed 142mph
0-60 in 7.4 secs
It has a 5 speed auto SelectShift tap up/tap down feature.
There is a full size spare wheel located in the boot alongside the battery.
Initial cost in the US around US$40,000
The platform is related to the Jaguar 'S' type and Ford Thunderbird.
About 263,000 were built during the period 2000-6
