The 2001 Lincoln LS: before you buy

We are a rental company, not a dealer, so there is no 2001 Lincoln LS for sale by us right now. We are not a lender and do not arrange loans. A monthly rental can cover the time while you arrange financing with your bank. This page puts the 2001 Lincoln LS in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

Before you sign for the LS

A private seller in Ontario must give you a Used Vehicle Information Package. Ask the seller for the service records of this exact car. Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it.

Reading the spec sheet

Power comes from the 3.0L 6-cylinder, driving through a 5-speed manual. It calls for premium gas, which costs more a litre than regular. Rear-wheel drive gives balanced handling; in winter, the tires make the biggest difference.

Expect about 37 litres for every 300 km, going by its 12.4 L/100 km combined rating. In energy, every 100 km costs about $21.70 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Space and size

Its car body is low and settled, with a separate trunk. For luggage, 368 litres means about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Who the LS suits

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits a family trip where everyone and everything fits in one car.

Rent it for a week first

A week with the LS answers more than any brochure. If the LS is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent it, live with it for a week, and decide with real experience.

The cost of driving it

Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. At our price setting, 100 km costs about $21.70 in fuel. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $217 at our price setting.

Narrowing it down

Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires. Within the 2001 lineup, trims share powertrains or differ in equipment; the trim pages show which. Ask the seller which trim it is; badges can be swapped and options vary.

One more step

A week with the car can save a costly mistake: request it now.

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 2001 Lincoln LS from us first.
