The seller offers for sale a 1976 Mercury Marquis Brougham Coupe, a true American luxury cruiser from the golden age of full-size cars. Powered by a 7.5-litre V8 engine and automatic transmission, this vehicle combines comfort, power, and presence. The current owner has maintained the car since 2010, with servicing performed by a U.S. car specialist in The Hague. In 2014, the body received professional restoration, including rust repair, partial repainting, and a new vinyl Brougham roof. A discreet modern radio with four speakers was installed inside the glovebox, preserving the car’s original appearance. The engine starts easily and runs quietly, the gearbox shifts smoothly, and the car drives confidently on long trips—having even toured Southern France and Italy. Only four small rust spots remain on the doors, hood, and boot lid. The ventilation, fuel gauge, original radio, and cruise control are non-functional, but the car is otherwise roadworthy and enjoyable to drive.
The Mercury Marquis Brougham represented Ford’s interpretation of luxury motoring in the mid-1970s. Known for its spacious interior, smooth V8 performance, and effortless ride quality, it became a symbol of American comfort and prestige. The coupe version offered a blend of style and elegance, featuring generous chrome detailing and a plush interior typical of the era. Today, these big-bodied Mercurys are cherished for their nostalgic appeal, relaxed cruising character, and rarity on European roads. This example offers a fine opportunity to experience authentic 1970s American luxury with proven reliability and strong road presence.
