It was manually removed by staff so nothing "automated" in this case. It also remained up for a fair amount of time too. Have to wonder if a member watched it and reported it.

I found that video pretty harmless, therefore i scratch my head why it was removed to begin with...

There was one f-bomb at some point. That's all I got.
As for automations - staff could have removed it manually while relying on YouTube ratings. One way or the other, it's gone.
At least you`ve seen the video so it`s allright
As I noted above, L-M dealers didn't have a shred of a clue about how to sell to people who had all of their own teeth. A similar fiasco took place with the Lincoln LS. In both cases L-M assured owners and enthusiasts that they were going to support and upgrade the cars long term then proceeded to kick the cars to the curb just a few months later.
I was just out of college then and looking for a ‘sports car’. I did go to. L-M dealer that had one and it was very obvious they only had it since it was more or less forced down their throat. My recollection is was pretty pricy and I was also looking at 944’s. Wound up buying neither.View attachment 271711
I owned this one, A 1986 double wing. Of course I took off the "phone dial" wheels (for those of you that remember dial phones!)
I replaced those 14" wheels with 15" from a 1989 Merkur. It looked much better.
They were sold at Lincoln/Mercury dealerships, so the OP is correct. This car, as above sold for $21,000 dollars, but right next to it was a Lincoln Continental which could be had for $23,000.00!
I was in the Army when those came out. New, they were pretty impressive compared to some of the other Euro vehicles it was suppose to compete against for sales.
1st owners that stayed on top of maintenance seemed to do well with them. Second and successive owners and is a downward death spiral of trying to keep them going.
