Italiot Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 What cars combined would you call the new mk5 mondeo Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOF Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 The nose is definitely Aston (and that's no bad thing), no question. The rear doesn't really remind me of anything in particular just at the moment, but looks a little fussier than it need be - maybe a big Hyundai that someone has fitted Mk 4.5 lights to, I don't know. That rear window looks a bit small, so i wonder about rearward visibility and parking, but you'd really have to sit in it - although maybe they all have rear facing cameras, and, if so, that concern might go away. I'm less convinced about the interior, which looks a bit like a cross between something quite good and a Toyota Avensis. And that, I assume, is a top end model, the equivalent of the Edge probably looks distinctly more minimalist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L666JER Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 They've been going on about this for ages now. Why don't they just put it on sale in the UK. Would be one of the best looking big saloons on sale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italiot Posted February 24, 2014 Author Share Posted February 24, 2014 When I first saw it first idea was Aston Hyundai mix as in vanquish and i40 Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Admiral Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I've had every Mondeo from the beginning and can't wait to get one of these, they look great in met grey & met black, and there's the new VIGNALE range ( above Titanium X ) which from the hype reminds me of my dad getting a mk4 Cortina 2.3 Ghia auto in 1978 as they were mega luxurious compared to the mk3 2000E.

Stoney871 Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 Looks like the front of an Aston and the rear of a Jag. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Italiot Posted February 25, 2014 Author Share Posted February 25, 2014 There is a jag resemblance but I would go more Hyundai Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rossbclarke123 Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 I have had a drive in one from the us market, it feels a lot more luxury in than the current Model and a bit bigger inside. Rear view visibility was pretty good and the hybrid technology was out of this world! Why isit when you test drive new releases you always play with a much better model than you can afford :( Sent from my iPhone using Ford OC mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigD Posted March 2, 2014 Share Posted March 2, 2014 It looks great - in fact, pretty much the only car I've ever seen that looks good in white. However, I would not touch one with a bargepole unless I saw evidence that Ford have learned lessons from the show-stopping faults that plagued the Mk3 and Mk4.
