They're good enough machines, but the 2.5 V6 feels diluted in the
current model compared to previous generation Mondeos - probably
emission control related. Yeuck, emission control!

TDCi a more wholesome proposition overall really. But dearer to
buy. Nah I'd prefer the TDCi but could see the sense (!) in the V6.

It's not my car/choice/problem - Mum likes the colour, so it was the
obvious choice really... As for the Derv idea, they do about 100
miles a year, so it's not really necessary, and the V6 is probably
better for towing the caravan. I have little interest really as
I'll probably never drive it, and have no desire what so ever to
drive it.

V6 or modern TD better for towing. Right, that's a whole new can o'
worms opened.....


<fingers in ears> Don't care, don't care, don't care :)

Mum liked it, cos it was silver, and quite fast. She doesn't like
diesels, so it was never an option.

Wahey for the DanMum - who appears to have more taste in cars than most of
us lot :-p


She also drives fast, over takes everything in sight, and has a motorbike :)
