Thinking of buying a Lincoln Continental 69

Yeah you read correct.
I saw this car on an annual car meeting here in Bergen a few days ago, haven't managed to think of anything else since. It has a V8 7.5 liter engine, weighs 2,3 tonns and is 5,7 meters long and a little over 2 meters wide. Has suicide rear doors. Just love that car.
Just wondering if anyone has any experience with those card. I think it's a Mark III, it's not a convertible and off course has 4 doors.
Here's some pictures of it. It has been in Norway since it was new, and back then it was extremely expensive, even more so then the Cadillac.
This is a 64, but looks the same as the 69:

Looks fabulous, I love those big old boats. But you should probably rename the topic to "Thinking of buying 100 litres of gas a week from now on"

GeoTrail is from Norway, so who cares about gas.

Somewhere i read they have all the oil billions.

He pay the same as I for a litre (1/4 gallon). 10dkr (1.8$)
Cool car though, and extremely interesting price!

Gasoline here is 12,5 per liter for 95 unleaded. That is 11,40 DKK

We pay around 11 too. It waves up and down.
BUT you are not right. Every source i find says that its actually UNDER 10 NOK, and when i was there just this winther we paid around 10.5 NOK/litre almost everywhere. A bit cheaper than denmark. So either they gave it a kick or you buy your gas a stupid place

Also i saw an old chart from late 2006:
per litre calculated to NOK:
Denmark 10,12
Norway 10,53
Sweden 9,03
USA 3.76

I actually dreamed about that car last night. MTV came to my door to pimp it. Man, it got an Xbox 360, PS3, GPS and a TV on the dash and a big screen under the roof hehehe
