Q
Lincoln Exhaust Resonator?
Just bought a cherry 78' Mark V. 50,000 orig. documented miles that (no B.S.) was owned by a 92 yr. old lady. She drove it until they took her liscense away 4 yrs. ago. The only thing wrong with it is the exhaust resonator rotted off from sitting in her garage. If anyone knows where in northeastern Ohio or anywhere else I could get an O.E.M. repl...

As cool as keeping this type or car totally original the resonator muffler actually hinders the performance of the car and is a product of the fuel & smog issues of the 70's. It does little except reduce horsepower and I think you will be pleasantly surprised with the operation without it. Best of...

The 2008 Volvo V50 occupies a price range between that of economical five-door small hatchback models and wagon versions of smaller sport sedans such as the Audi A4 and BMW 3-Series.
The more affordable Audi A3 is a closer rival to the V50 and includes a more fuel-efficient and surprisingly powerful 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine.
However, the A3 isn’t as roomy inside; it doesn’t have many of the safety features that are optional in the V50.
Another possibility is the Subaru Impreza; in its base 2.5i form, it’s a much more affordable alternative, with standard all-wheel drive and performance from its horizontally opposed four-cylinder engine that’s similar to that from the base five in the Volvo.
But the so-called Impreza Wagon is no longer a wagon—it’s a shorter five-door hatchback.
The 9-3 SportCombi, from Sweden’s other car brand, Saab, is perhaps the V50’s most direct rival, but the 9-3 SportCombi also has a cramped backseat while not offering the ride refinement and poise of the V50.
All-wheel drive isn’t available on the SportCombi either.
