Bought our V8 manual Fastback home tonight, done about 100 miles. Love it, looks amazing, sounds great and is a real head turner. So comfy cruising on the motorway.
Well done.. Are you the official first UK Pistonheads recipient of a rhd Mustang..?I've just gone through 5,000 miles and 7 months of ownership..

Nice pics but still none with uk plates
Bargain at £49,995 http://www.fenways.co.uk/used-cars/ford-mustang-5-...sonicbloo said:
Friday afternoon car that me thinks, panel gap on the bonnet is aweful. Needs the bonnet or if were American hood removing and refitting. My mates collecting a well kept secret car (just arrived, cancelled order) from Busseys in Norwich Saturday...£37k! He`s super exited...always wanted a GTR but running costs have held him back. It was a tough decision for him, but a short test drive and he was hooked. Can`t wait to have a go in it myself at the weekend. Its red with black wheels...looks good. They also have a black customer car and a silver demo (ugh colour).

Saw an orange one driving through town the other day, first uk mustang I've seen in the road, and sorry, but IMHO the colour wasn't that great at all in the flesh.
Colour pigments are designed for their most popular market.Competition Orange looks fantastic in the sunshine of California and Nevada, as does Grabber Blue.
Both look st in the sunshine over here.

I ordered mine a few months ago from SMC in Crayford
5.0 manual in green-grey with saddle leather
Got a call this morning from them to say their V8 demo had arrived and did I fancy a drive - I was on the m25 at the time so I popped in
Demo was 5.0 auto
Very comfortable and nicely put together - I would say vw standard in the important areas - less in some areas.
The engine really suits the auto box - has paddles as well.
Does not have the bottom end grunt if a camaro - but it likes to rev that is for sure .
The idle is a bit calm for my liking - particularly in comparison to my dodge ram - but under load it sounds great - a magnaflow cat-back will be neccessary to resolve this I feel
Performance-wise - not as fast as my griff 500 - but not far off and it handles and rides very well.
Overall a very good package - I am probably going to have the auto - it is such a nice gearbox and I have got used to paddles now from my disco.
But I am really really glad I ordered one
I wanted to keep the look of the standard car with the black wheels and no chrome highlights so I added all the goodies individually
Comes in at 37 - will be a bit more with the auto
but still amazing value for money

I picked it because it ended in Yankee Yankee, however I've since bought a private plate that ends in USA. Just need the dvla to pull their finger out with my v750How a horse would sound Neigh and Nag
