Quickest Mondeo

What the quickest mondeo from 2007 onwards??

[rfn]

They did the 2.5T engine with 216bhp until the middle of March this year, but it appears to have been discontinued.

NOw you can get their new 2.0 EcoBoost engine with 200bhp, but seemingly only with an auto gearbox.

any of the 2.5T's especially with a chip I expect. Sadly they dont have a ST model.

I dunno, but I bet it'll be more fun than an M3

Which was the Mondeo that Bond drove?

only if it comes with gaffa tape aero aids like most of the early mk1's seem to

a prototype... closest to production reality is a Titanium X Sport I think.

Be glad he didn't suggest a "Mustan GT"

Mines a 2007

Didn't know they had dropped the 2.5 but makes sense TBH, sooner the new engines come online the better, a decent 2L turbo in Titanim X Sport guise would be OK, maybe even an ST Ford? (although no V6 )

Sick of all these small capacity IL4's with Turbos, where's the displacement, where's the V's?

In the history books along with the "Oh my god, 99.9p for a litre of fuel, when's the strike on", and "What the fk's a Hybrid car?" comments...

surely the Mondeo deserves some award for being the car most likely to have it's bumpers taped up when it hits 10yrs old?

It was a pre-production I5 with big wheels and a few styling tweaks.

a receptionist and an IT guy where i work, both had early mk1's and surprise surprise, the gaffa tape was in full swing

i have to assume, by now there was a serious design issue with the bumper mounting points - even pikeys in rusty old transits manage a better job of bumper affixing and rust covering for mot(?!)

So this isn't an extension of your other thread then

Well, I recently sold my E46 M3 as i really wasnt that impressed with the fun side of the car...

So my question is any suggestions of what I should go for next...


...would prefer it not to be RWD.

Vauxhall will be happy to sell you a 6.2l V8 large saloon. Or have they stopped selling new ones now?
