My first Ford is the one I've currently got (2.2 2009 Mondeo Estate).

My first ever car was a 2003 Nissan Almera 1.5 which was a great little runner but no good as a family car. Then moved onto a 2005 1.6 Vauxhall Zafira which was ideal as a first family car but had no service history and was just starting to cost me more in repairs than I bought the car for in the first place (£1800).

The missus has a 2.0 Ford Focus that I was v jealous of (Black, Titanium spec) so when I saw this Mondeo that had only 71000 on the clock, Titanium X spec, one prev owner and full ford service history (who also confirmed the single prev owner) I had to have it :-)

Not regretting it ... so far ...

    My first Ford is the current Mk2.5 Focus - and is a very nice car!

    The family isn't a stranger to the Blue Oval. Dad had a couple of Sierras (1 Maroon on an F plate...got nicked and written off :( and the other red of similar age that also got nicked...after it'd been px'd against a Xantia lol).

    His other Ford was an Orion on a D plate. Was quite well known and we were forever followed by marked and unmarked Police cars (there weren't that many of them in Grimsby and it was a little too coincidental that these cars kept appearing behind us lol

    Come to think of it, my first ever drive in a car was in the red Sierra (few hours previous to that I'd had my first driving experience - in a truck lol)

    Mum ended up having a chat with out friendly local Beat Bobbies - who neither confirmed (*ahem*) nor denied anything. But did promise to have the marker that may or may not exist updated. (Previous owner was known for drugs and did a spot of ram raiding in his spare time. When Dad bought the car, he was on holiday (at Her Majesty's pleasure) - so his Dad sold it for him.
