I really thought that I was going to be able to drive this car, but alas, it sits next to the blue in the garage. 2 Marauders that sit and don't get driven is too much.
300A, Black I bought this car from "SwiftSloth" on this board, who is a Constable Deputy for Montgomery County. This was his personal car that he used the car for personal use and to work Extra jobs. This car does have strobes installed in the front corner lights and reverse lights. They are not hooked to anything. This car is NOT a patrol car that was used by many different people and jumped curbs and used for high speed pursuits, long idle times etc. All adult owners and cared for well. All previous maintenance has been done by the Local Lincoln/Mercury Dealer before I got it, and it shows in the way the car runs. This is a Texas car, no rust, no holes, no excuses.
This car has 121,000 miles on it. I love the car, but I already have the blue Marauder that stays inside, so this one has to go.
The exterior is in very nice shape. No dents, dings or scratches. I keep it garaged (next to my Blue marauder) and it gets a treatment of Zaino Bros Polishes and Waxes and is treated to a wash weekly. The car has the Factory 18" Marauder wheels with a matching set of BFGoodrich 235/50R18s in the front, and 245/55R18s in the rear, tires have plenty of tread remaining. The wheels are in very nice shape, and have a slight bit of curb rash, but not severe. The trunk has a Ford Accessory decklid spoiler, painted black to match. The spoiler has a slight crack in it, but its not noticeable unless you look closely. I installed Silverstar turn signals, and headlights.
Rear windows tinted to 5%, the front windows have tint removed and re-tinted with legal 35%. The rear window is 5% with cutouts for lights. I plan on having this professionally removed and re-tinted without the cutouts.
The interior is finished in the Factory Charcoal black perforated leather. The dash has no cracks/splits, and is treated regularly with 303 Protectant to keep the plastics and vinyls looking new. The front seats are power with lumbar. I have added Mercury Accessory Rubber mats to keep the carpet nice. This car has bucket seats with the Floor shift, and the Autometer Gauges in the section below the climate control unit. There is one very small hole on the driver seat near the backrest, the usual spot, but it is very un-noticeable, but I wanted to list it. The Electronic Pushbutton climate control unit is new. Still has the sticker on it. Factory Ford Audiophile stereo with AM/FM/CD/Cassette works great. No blown speakers. All interior lights, switches and controls work fine. The trunk is clean and free of any rips or stains. I'll include the OEM trunk organizer if the car sells to another member here. This car has the 300A full overhead console with Sunglass Case, CD holder, Compass and Homelink. Windshield has one small chip but no cracks. There is a temporary spare in place. (Astrovic stole the spare when he had his MM).
Engine runs good, transmission has been serviced recently, fluid looks good and shifts smooth with no issues. I have replaced the front Brake pads and rotors with Wagner Thermoquiet Brake Pads and Wagner rotors. The car stops smooth with no issues. While the front brakes were being replaced, I replaced both front Sway Bar End Links. I use Mobil 1 5W30 and a Motorcraft filter at the last oil change (last weekend). Car has current Texas inspection and registration. New WalMart Everstart MAXX 65 battery. I have 2 keys, and 2 keyless entry remote controls. No owners manual, but I'll throw in the one from my DTR 2004.
My dad was here for about a month in January and drove the car from Houston to KS with no issues at all.
The car also has a K&N Drop in Filter, as well as a SuperChips 1725 "Max Microtuner"
This car was repainted when it was under warranty by a Ford Dealer, due to the paint issues with certain Black MMs.
