Thoroughly inspect the automatic transmission for smooth shifts and any warning lights during a test drive.
Check for rust, especially on the subframe, rocker panels, and around wheel wells, as this is a common issue for older models.
Test all power sliding doors multiple times to ensure they operate correctly and smoothly.
Always get a pre-purchase inspection from an independent mechanic specializing in American cars.
Verify the maintenance history, paying close attention to transmission fluid changes.
Be prepared for higher fuel consumption compared to modern, smaller vehicles.
Consider the availability of Mercury-specific body parts; while mechanical parts are shared with Ford, unique trim pieces might be harder to source.
