1960 Mercury Park Lane
Mercury was a brand that had a whole lot of potential but no one to drive it home. It fell to the wayside as Ford focused energies on brands like Lincoln. Nevertheless, Park Lane was another attempt to try and influence a new generation of buyers. The styling of Park Lane was absolutely beautiful, and that鈥檚 where things get a bit complicated. Pricing for Park Lane was quite high and that turned a lot of buyers away because Mercury was entering into a completely different bracket.

1960 Mercury Park Lane
A lot of aspects of the car were similar to segment stalwarts like the Impala. Nevertheless, sales were some of the worst of any Mercury model. The collector鈥檚 community has also tended to ignore Park Lane, and finding one of these in decent shape isn鈥檛 easy. Most of the early Park Lane models are either rusted away or in a museum.

Though the media also made no reference to the Service's shabby Mayfair headquarters at Leconfield House, to which it moved late in 1948, bus conductors and taxi drivers were less inhibited. A member of Registry recalls: "When you got off the bus in Park Lane the conductor would shout down the bus 'Curzon Street and MI5' and all the girls would troop off looking somewhat embarrassed! We also had to contend with some of the 'ladies of the night' in Curzon Street as Shepherds Market was a very red light district in the 60's and I think they might have thought they had some competition."
Christopher Andrew, The Defence of the Realm
