Buying the 2002 Lincoln LS

CarmaCars is a rental company and does not have the 2002 Lincoln LS for sale right now. Rent one for a week first, or ask us to look for one. 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 2002 Lincoln LS in plain words for buyers: what it uses, what to check, and how to try one first.

What to check on the LS

Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. NHTSA has 121 owner complaints on file, mostly about engine and engine cooling, suspension and air bags. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

The figures, translated

It uses the 3.0L 6-cylinder and rear-wheel drive. 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.

For 300 km of mixed driving, expect about 37 litres, from its 12.4 L/100 km rating. At our price setting, it costs about $21.70 to drive 100 km. At US fuel prices, the EPA estimates US$4,350 a year for 15,000 miles.

Room inside

Being a mid-size car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. The EPA lists 368 litres for luggage, roughly about two large suitcases and a few soft bags.

Who it is for

It suits someone whose own car is in the shop for a while. It suits visitors who want a familiar car for a week in town.

Drive it on your own roads

If the LS is in our fleet, its page shows the rates; if not, a similar car helps you judge. Rent the LS for a week and see how it fits your life. Load it with your things and park it where you park; then decide.

Money matters

A 1,000 km month costs roughly $217 at our price setting. Premium gas adds to the running cost compared with a car on regular. The EPA estimates US$4,350 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices.

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.
