If You Didn't Have Yours What Would You Have - Type Only..

Ok, by type only I mean, you can only transfer to a style of Ford...

I'd have to say that if I didn't have a Focus estate I'd a Mondeo Estate :D

...if we're adding US into this then it would definitely be a Mustang :lol:...I'd be gone in 60 secs :lol:



RS500 :d

Sorry but no other car would satisfy me.

Escort RS Cosworth

This exact one actually :)

Wouldn't mind a play in the RS500...

Realistically though, I'd be happy with an ST for fun :D

When it eventually comes to needing a proper family car I am considering a Galaxy.

Not quite what the spirit of the thread hinted at, but it is true lol

To be fair Sean, the S-max is pretty damn cool... But then I like estates so I'm probably not 'cool' :lol:

for a toy: I would have the RS500

for a family car: (if I am thinking of the right motor) I would have the newest mondeo: http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/ford/mondeo/63668/new-ford-mondeo-release-date-price-and-rumours

if I just didnt have this car: I would probably have bought a MK3 Mondeo.

Allow these RS500 and Cosworth Malark, How about an RS200? Much more exotic and BOSS!

Or a 60's GT40, just so I could go under car park barriers.

without question RS200........

I'm for the rs500!! I think I could handle driving one everyday ! Don't think could do the gt day to day but as a weekend you would be nice :)

sean if you want space but also some fun and you can afford the running costs then go for the 2.8 galaxy. 2 tonn monster.

if i could afford it,then i would go for a all singing and dancing blinged up smax.

now if i could really afford it then i would go for 'elenor'.think about it. B)

If my ailing memory serves me right 2.8 galaxy 174BHP fun bus....

Suppose I could lower myself to a Shelby GT350 fastback but I'd tell everyone it was really an RS500 8)

eleanor mmmmmmmmm

If my ailing memory serves me right 2.8 galaxy 174BHP fun bus....

think you forgotten a few bhp??? :P

http://www.parkers.co.uk/cars/reviews/facts-and-figures/ford/galaxy/estate-2000/19346/

they even do a 150bhp in tdi version if you want to save a few quid on the fuel costs B)

if practicality/ running/ fuel cost is no object - Ford GT - this one will do nicely -

Haha get in the que !

Ah sorry I was going on about the mk 1 galaxy 95-00 lol only because I had one.

ah I see they gave it an extra 27 horses from 2000 .

good times though surprised a good few boy racers lol :D :driving:

so ive heard/read.

must be great to see the looks on there faces when they get thrashed by a 7 seater. :censored: :censored: :driving:

Next door neighbour recently got a new S-Max...it looks squished at the back!! Rather have the full size thing lol

Dad hired a Galaxy in 2012 to come down to my passing out parade - Titanium and can't remeber the engine - but he said it was a lovely motor with more toys than he could play with :D

About a year later he got a poverty spec Galaxy from a different company and didn't like it so much lol

the smax is meant to be a sporty looking mpv.

like any version of car,get a basic model and it shows its true colours.get a decent version then normally peeps wont complain too much.

Yep a proper embarrassment for spotty teenagers in their vx nova, ford fiestas etc, I was regularly shearing the bolt to the gearbox which held the stabilizer bar lol. you could watch your fuel gauge act like a rev counter if the gas pedal was hit hard :driving: :driving:..

A Mk1 Escort .............. Cosworth B)
