1972 Mercury Cougar Xr-7 Survivor! Mustang Torino Montego on 2040-cars
Monroe, Michigan, United States
|
1972 Mercury cougar for sale. This is a true 94xxx mile all original survivor! I got the car from an older gentlemen (who only put about 200 miles on the car) who got it from the estate of the original owner. You never find them like this anymore! Nothing has been changed or altered. Original paint, interior and drivetrain! Car is Bright Green Gold Metallic with 3/4 White Vinyl Top (very nice condition) (top has very light dirt streaks in it. I haven't tried cleaning it, as its still to cold here)and Medium Green Leather bucket seats. There were 53,702 Cougars built in 1972. (Cougar, Cougar Conv., Cougar XR7 and XR7 Conv.) Out of all 1972 cougars built, only 93 were painted Bright Green Gold Metallic. Of these only 41 were XR7's. And of those, only 23 had the Green Leather interior! I have never found any rust on this car anywhere (car had always been in Texas until I got it). Never been in an accident. There are a couple of small dings and scratches in the car, but after all, its 42 years old! I just had the exterior professionally rubbed out and buffed, and WOW! I never thought original paint could look so good! The car actually looks wet! You can restore a car 100 times, but they are only original once! This car would clean house in a survivor class at a car show! Options include and verified on the Marti report are: White 3/4 Vinyl top, FMX Transmission, Convenience Group, Power steering, Power front disc brakes, Air Conditioning (been converted to R-134 and blows ice cold), AM Radio, Console (clock doesn't work) and Tinted glass. I wouldn't be afraid to drive this car across country. It rides and drives like a dream. Tires are new. Choke needs adjusted.(doesn't like this cold weather). Runs great after warmed up. No warranties implied. $500 deposit required within 24 hours. Balance due in 7 days. If your interested in looking at the car or want someone else too, no problem, I actually encourage it. This car has nothing to hide. I have a 100% feedback rating, and have sold cars on here in the past. Any questions? Call Ron @ 734 735 2260. Thanks for looking! |

Automakers tussle over owners of 'orphan' makes
Thu, 10 May 2012When General Motors put down several of its brands in recent years, it also let loose thousands of brand-loyal customers who will eventually need another car.
R.L. Polk Associates estimates there are more than 18 million cars from 16 discontinued makes on the road today. Those "orphan owners" have sales-hungry competitors seeing dollar signs. GM is offering Saturn owners $1,000 cash toward a Chevy Cruze, Cadillac CTS or a GMC Acadia. Ford is giving its Mercury lease customers a chance to get out of their contracts with no early-termination penalty and offering to waive six remaining payments if they drive off in a Ford or Lincoln.
Edmunds.com research shows the efforts are paying off somewhat for GM, with 39 percent of Pontiac owners, 37 percent of Hummer owners and 31 percent of Saturn owners taking delivery of another GM-branded vehicle. But that leaves as much as 69 percent of owners going elsewhere. Ford, Honda and Toyota seem to be attracting many former GM owners.
Jill Wagner retired as Mercury spokeswoman
Wed, 17 Nov 2010Jill Wagner has officially given up her crown as the queen of Mercury. With the Ford middle child on its way to the scrap heap, Wagner no longer has any automotive hardware to promote. Given her varied talents, we wouldn't be surprised to see her pick up where she left off with another automaker.
And here you thought you'd never be upset about Mercury's passing.
Thanks for the tip, Gregg!
Preposed class-action lawsuit targets 'defective' MyFord Touch
Tue, 16 Jul 2013A national law firm, Hagens Berman Sobol Shapiro LLP, has filed a proposed class action lawsuit whose presupposition is that MyFord Touch is defective. Specifically, the complaint states that the system - as well as the MyLincoln Touch and MyMercury Touch clones - often freeze, fail to respond to voice or touch commands and have issues connecting to mobile phones.
According to Hagens Berman managing partner Steve Berman, MyFord Touch is a theoretically "brilliant idea" that falls short in actual execution. Said Berman in a press release, "In reality, the system is fundamentally flawed, failing to reliably provide functionality, amounting to an inconvenience at best, and a serious safety issue at worst."
Other MFT issues enumerated within the 41-page filing include problems controlling the window defroster, rear-view camera and navigation system. The suit maintains that Ford is aware of the problem but has yet to submit a workable and acceptable solution to MFT customers. Scroll down if you'd like to read the full press release.
