In May I ordered my new company car (mondeo Titanium X Estate 2.0
diesel, I am told the estiimated delivery date is end of October!!!

can anyone (maybe a Ford employee) shed any light on why it is taking
so long!


CG

They never thought anyone would be daft enough to buy one, so it has to
be
specially made!


I guess you specialise in either narrow minded opinions, have never tried
one, nor its peers?

It's because of demand.

For the Titanium X? - have you seen the price of it, ffs.

but you'd have to be completely
insane to order an A4 2.0TDI SE.

Post corrected. I can think of few worse cess pits to drive than the
current A4.

Don't see that many of them around, in any spec. either.

Yeah you do. Plenty. As it happens I see a lot of higher specification
machines too.

In the company car scheme of things, picking the Mondeo says a lot more
about many other machines. Can you guess what cars these comments refer to?

Trying to be different; snide remark about being a Mondeo.
Trying an alternative brand; cheese eating surrender monkey machine.
Trying to be different; snide remark about being a Vauxhall.
Didn't want a 3-Series; couldn't afford a 3-Series.
Couldn't afford a 5-Series; couldn't afford a 5-Series.
Wanted the A4; snide remark about being a long wheelbase Golf.

Then there's the Mondeo...
