2017 v 2018 Mustang 5.0?

[schmalex]

Hi folks

My wife is due to change her car soon, so is test driving a 2018 Mustang 5.0 tomorrow. Has anyone driven the latest model back to back with the 2016 / 2017 model and is there a significant difference? If she can’t get delivery in time, she’s considering a one year old used version, but we have a slight concern that there may be a large gap in quality between the two

Anyone?

Thanks folks. That’s really helpful. Fingers crossed she likes it!!

Are they still selling the my’17’s new?

0% and a decent lump off sounds like quite an interesting incentive to go for if the changes aren’t that significant

So, Mrs K is now the proud owner of a 2017 Mustang 5.0GT auto in Magnetic Grey with the Custom Pack. We got, I think, a reasonable deal on the finance and she’s grinning like a Cheshire Cat!!!

We got the car + autobox + custom pack for £40,090 and then negotiated the finance from there

I’ve no idea to be honest. However, it’s averaging 18mpg at the moment so we’re not overly concerned about an extra £300 / yr on tax!!!

Order placed this morning for the missus car, 2017 5.0 Triple yellow shadow edition. Get it in a couple of weeks. 0% finance and a couple of grand off from ford - basically pays the first years road tax

She’ll love it!!!

Although, I have just bought a Panda 4x4 so that Mrs K doesn’t put hers through a hedge backwards in winter (not that she’s a rubbish driver - more, she like to exercise the car when she can!)
