The 1986 Ford LTD for buyers
We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 1986 Ford LTD for sale by us right now. Before buying the 1986 Ford LTD, read what the figures say and how to try one first.
What to check on the LTD
NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Owners filed 9 complaints with NHTSA, most often about electrical system, engine and engine cooling and seats; have those parts checked. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.
Under the hood
It uses the 2.3L 4-cylinder and rear-wheel drive. It runs on regular gas. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.
For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 35 litres, from its 11.8 L/100 km rating. In money, 1,000 km costs about $182.90 at our price setting. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$3,350 a year for 15,000 miles.
A good match for
It uses more fuel than most, so it suits shorter trips or people who need its size. It suits a work trip where a reliable car matters more than anything else.
What to expect from the LTD
Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. Its 425 litres of luggage space fit a family's bags for a long weekend.
Rent it for a week first
Try the LTD on your commute, then decide. Nothing is charged until we confirm the rental and you approve the offer. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.
Year and trim
Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. If two trims share a powertrain, the difference is equipment, which you can check in person.
Running costs
Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $182.90 at our price setting.
Ready when you are
Send a request to rent the model first, or ask us what we can do.
Rent it for a week before you buy
A week of your own driving tells you more than a test drive: the commute, the parking, the fuel. Rent a 1986 Ford LTD from us first.
