Oh, now we’re going to argue about donk-ability?   LOL

How do you review a car and not know it’s a diesel?

I love the positivity of “trick the motors into not caring.”
I’m sorry but that is naïve. A stage 2 Audi tune is not the same as convincing a manual transmission can jive with this extremely specific W8.

165,000 miles, one stoplight at a time. No thanks.

Keep your car.

Rock Auto is your friend. 

I’ve long thought you produced the best writing on this site, but your use of the British art of the understatement paired with a British car is brilliant.

Iirc this interior was dated the moment it was penned. You have to want a small navigation screen with limited features set deep into a plastic dash wirh clunky plastic knobs.

Finally, something worth the asking price.

the gold paint is a rare color.

Pretty much my thought, so many Ford emblems look like crap after a few years, they fade horribly.

Seeing how as the chrome peels and the blue color lifts and fades, ford should just ship the trucks without badges. Nix the holes on the tailgate which is just a paint failure point.

This is why the Buick Encore exists. 

As a former fleet guy who had Journeys, any price over free is asking to much.

My brother’s first Corolla GTS had 375k miles on it.

Both cooler and cheaper (by far) than a RZR, though without nearly the off-road capability. Easy NP for me.

You’d be surprised how many on here do not know how NP/ND works..

This is a NP.

You’re missing the point though. A person that wants a Marauder doesn’t want to settle for just another Panther. This is a Marauder; not a Grand Marquis, not a Crown Victoria, not a Town Car. A Marauder. Sure, most people see a Marauder and see a blacked out Marquis. But not Marauder fans.

I think Marauders are cool as shit, but I’m not sure they have a “break you in half” mentality. They weren’t particularly fast when new (slower than a contemporary V6 Accord).  To me, these were a bit like a Harley Davidson.  More about the aura than the performance.
