I would think it will be very slow with a 1.8 (100ps??) engine!!

It's a 123bhp engine - which propels it from 0-60 in a little over 10 seconds.

Apparently, combined it will give you 48mpg.

And the list price was £25k plus any options - so it's a 2.5 year old mondeo for half list. Imagine what it will be worth in 3 years time - half that again!? or less?

Of course it is-the 100ps is only in lower models!
