I'm very pleased with the car in general, the Mondeo had some toys, but not near as much as this, it comes fully loaded with fully adjustable electric seats driver and passenger, twin airbags, fully auto climate control, cruise control and simple, but effective auto dimming rear view mirror. As far as TOYS go this machine is loaded, for the same spec in BMW or Merc you pay 4 times the price. On long journeys the cars a dream, stick on CC and sit back trying not to forget to steer as you are laveshed up by the big arm chair type leather heated seats, the car is amazing. It is a pitty Ford have stopped making big cruisers like the scorpio, although I beleive they are planning a new scorpio that looks a bit like a Audi A8.
I had one of these as a company car and covered 160,000 miles. Only a couple of problems, the auto box needed an overhaul at 90,000 and the flimsy gearbox gasket leaked fluid onto the exhaust after a long run so that smoke billowed from the bonnet, very disconcerting I can tell you!
Solved with a new gasket and getting the bolts re-torqued at ever service. Great performance, 30mpg and aside from the above totally and utterly dependable and unburstable. I would buy another tomorrow if the company car tax wasn't so painful and I didn't need more economy since I'm now on a mileage allowance.
Please tell me more about fords plans for a new scorpio design
Not heard anything myself, but am very interested for any info.
