Very Nice, do like the front end of these (not so keen on the back- seems to cheapen the image a bit- probably just me). What engine/ spec is it?

Hi, I dunno, I like both ends, perhaps it's grown on me as I did loads of research before I purchased. It is a 2.0l Titanium X diesel, manual gearbox with optional park assist - works really well - and optional 18" wheels, colour is Tango. Cost me a whisker over £18,000, some £4,900 less than quoted on Ford's website as I purchased through a internet broker. One thing I really, really like, is the 'converse' 256 colour display in the dash, a neat little toy that actually works... Cheers, Chris

yeah ive seen that converse thing. Really works? Cool. Gennereally Ford are quite good at putting gadgets in that are actually usefull rather than being there for the hell of it. Is the parking assist, just like parking sensors or is it one of them radar efforts?
18k? Thats superb value. Well done that man!

Hi again, they are just sensors, but the rear one is really needed as the visibilty isn't so good and it is a long way back; Here is another picture, I am trying to illustrate how he colour goes to orange when the sunlight is shining on it but my phone is still making it pinkish:  If the moderator doesn't object, and you are interested, I could post up some pics of the converse display... Cheers, Chris

Hi, true, however I have got used to it, besides it is better to look at that display for choosing CD tracks or radio stations, than it is to look left and downward to to audio player... Chris

The new mondeo is a really smart looking car! Especially at the front it is really awesome! Those rims are like those from a Focus ST right? I think the back of mazda 2 sedan reminds me the one from a mondeo! Or not?

It looks bigger but I think Mazda should keep the hatchback style only for mazda2 because someone looking for a sedan won't go for a mazda2 sedan as there are many other sedan including mazda3! Mazda2 it is better to remind someone a supermini than a sedan!
