UK Mustang delivery

[Manders Mustang]

I've been thinking of getting a Mustang very similar to yours with similar mods. I have had a few questions however.

a) What MPG do you get City/Highway with the Ecoboost?
b) How does the Magnaflow exhaust sound? Any chance for a video?

Thanks

Morning chap,

Apologies for the somewhat slow reply, I'm regularly inactive on the weekends. Anyway as [MENTION=17691]welsh treg[/MENTION] said, i'll be here to give a bit more indepth.

A) I'll average anywhere over 32 on a long journey. I average (on 1.7k miles) 25.0MPG exactly. I drive quite mixed, but also regularly don't drive more than 20 minutes to and from the station for work. When I'm driving long distances, far superior. Same for the GT.
B) As treg has the 'sport' exhaust, a slightly more tame version of the competition - I've got the competition, the louder version.
The main questions you'd have would be drone - 0 @ <3k RPM 6th Gear doing 70
Gas pedal = happy pedal and now noisy pedal
Cold starts is loud, and revving anywhere over 4-5k RPM is enough to wake your younger brother up from sleeping at 7:30AM!
However, personally believe that the MF-Comp-Catback makes the ecoboost sound as close to a 'Mustang' as you're going to get, deeper tone, more bass-y, and turns peoples heads before you turn up.

The only video I've got is a cold start (I have a few revs on my driveway, but never uploaded to youtube!):

I also have a direct comparison with [MENTION=8914]Big_G[/MENTION] with his MF-Comp exhasust vs mine when it was stock - he's revving at 2k, I'm revving at 5-6k (He's DIB, I'm RR)

Morning Tarago Folks (and any other who care to read my drivvel),

Just checked WWL and I'm now in a status of "delivered from", I'm hoping this means I'm booked on the Autostar to Southampton tomorrow! I can see the Autostar is in Zeebrugge at the moment. I've emailed ford for an update/confirmation.

Fingers crossed for the rest of you!

I have also just awoken to discover 'delivered from'

I'm not getting my hopes up yet, just mean that it has been booked a ship. I've emailed Karen and Stacey so maybe we'll find out soon!

 

[McXtravert]

any idea how we track the next stage to Southampton?

All you can do is track the actual ship on http://www.marinetraffic.com/en/ais/home/centerx:-13/centery:-34/zoom:5

Quick question chaps.

How long before leaving Baltimore did your car show on the wwl site?

Mine showed up about a week to 10 day before sailing.

Mine showed up about a week to 10 day before sailing.

Thanks for the reply.

Email from ford says mines "waiting for vessel allocation, this usually takes 2 weeks, and therefore I anticipate a vessel allocation by the week of 18.06.16."

I guess this means a sailing around 25th of this month. Damn, hoped for sooner!

 

[Harley103]

You never know. I had a similar email from Stacey and my car appeared on WWL tracker the next day, 5 days before ship departure

 

[Harley103]

Doesn't seem like I'll be getting a response from Ford today then, no reply yet. Now I'm going to spend the weekend believing the mustang MAYBE on its way...

So I've just had this.......... Sounds promising:

Good afternoon,

I believe this vehicle has left Zeebrugge today; however we shall receive a confirmed list of all those vehicles on the Autostar on Monday.

Please feel free to check back with me on Monday to confirm.

Kind regards

Stacey Powell

Looks good, it'll be on a ship that arrives in the morning of tomorrow, but it's a win win if you ask me!!! . Call dealership on Monday and tell them it's in Southampton, and then tell them to get it to you asap, will have your car hopefully in no time !

Definite win! I can't quite believe it! I've already emailed the dealer but I'll be on the phone by Monday if they've not told me what's happening. Then it's in their hands though, so I guess the next stage of the waiting game...... Still dead chuffed though!

Anyone got any experience dealing with Perry's Chesterfield?

My mate's car, who ordered two days before me is on that boat, mine is still at the factory. :(

And for some strange reason my VIN no longer exists on Etis...
