scooby_simon Posted February 1, 2008 Report Share Posted February 1, 2008 some feckwit went into the side of the WR1 so I had the Ford for a few days... So what do I think of the Ford? Well, it cannot compare to the WR1 in any why except you can get more gear in it because it's bigger. Engine I was surprised that it actually had a fair bit of grunt and would rev a bit. Returned "enough" to not get too frustrated on the trip to the sailing club. Was it fun, not really, but capable. handling Not bad for a car with a lump of soot chucker in the front. Not throwable, but a good workhorse that you would not want to push too hard in the corners. inside Yuk! Seats were horrid, no real support, all plastic, and bad plastic at that.... overall Better than expected, and more importantly, much better than a Vectra I had a while back, so I guess the Ford wins in the market they are aiming at. IF I were buying in this sector, I’d probably have one of these on the list, the Vectra would not. It is very nice to have 320bhp and 4WD back!

cruiser647 Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 Having driven many of the new Vectra's I seriously rate them. They are great cars. I would rate them better overall than the old gen Mondeo, and prettier all round than the new! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
