Ford will be ceasing production of the Mondeo this month. We've never had one, (Audi owner) but always liked Fords and the 3 box family saloon since the Cortina.
Sad time - end of an era.  |

I had a "modified" one and it was fantastic!
Plus, so comfy on motorways, they really were made for them.
Also had a workhorse diesel one and slower but so much space! |

"Oh really, indeed a milestone in their history.
What are they replacing it with?"
I don't know what the replacement, if any will be. Apparently the market for this type of car has diminished. We're supposed to drive SUV's or electric now. Hmm. |

"Still not as nice as the Sierra, especially the Sierra/Sapphire Cosworth..!!  "
Or the Cortina..or Zephyr bench seat.
Had an affair with a girl called Nina
In the back of my Cortina.
... Now nobody has written a song about a mondeo.

"Never really been a mondeo fan apart from the Alain Menu btcc days (circa2000)
But im a massive ford nut and collect pre 90s fords   "
They certainly were better in the 80's/early 90's!! The Mondeo was ok in btcc, the RS500 was a million times better! |

Bench seats were the best!

Loved Mondeo when I was younger with little kids. My first company car was a 2.0 Tdci 115bhp, my colleagues took the piss as I could have had any car I wanted including Audi or BMW, but I chose top of the range Mondeo - the benefit tax was super low and I could get camping gear and 2 kids bikes in the boot abd drive to south of France on £75 of diesel |
