so there are only circa 213-240 Mustang Mach 1's in the Country?
No idea mate. As I understand it there have been general delays in all Mustangs in the UK (the world I believe have new car supply issues) due to parts problems and the pandemic.

I wouldn't start thinking you have some sort of rare collection item just yet😆. I think over time the Mach 1 will be the rarest Mustang you see though so I agree in part, just not so sure it's that different to a GT to be deemed a car in its own right particularly if you take the automatic. GT300/500 yes a different league of Mustang.

TC Harrison had a Mach 1 up for sale not that long ago as did Think Ford recently and may well still have it.

Haha I don't just yet , however I have it on good authority that the allocation for the UK was 3 per performance Dealer

Yep the usual sales tactic on new models. Give them time to sort out production and they will make as many a dealer can shift.

Saying the above the Mach 1 in my opinion will still be a rare sight due to its premium over the GT unless some deals start to happen which they may. So for now yes the Mach 1 is the Mustang to have of you want exclusivity, although Mustang owners are probably the only people that can distinguish between the two

I mean it does have a fat ass ''Mach 1'' on the side of it.
I take your point of the sale tactic but Productions numbers have already been confirmed in Aus and NZ (700&20)

My Focus has 'TITANIUM' in big letters on the back but what that means to most people Is trim level 🤣🤣

Don't know about Mach1 volumes in the UK, as far as I'm aware there wasn't a limit but what do I know. Probably a run rate but that's been scuppered I imagine

What's a performance store ?

Maybe they are, but I wasn't aware my local dealer was one of those. The second closest dealer also sells mustangs.

Last I spoke to my dealer, they had two Mach 1's coming over - I think they said one was a FJG customer order and the other was just a generic purchase for the forecourt (like most of the GT's my dealer shifts) :like:

I think he meant 'FordStore' basically dealers who can sell RS and Mustang lines of new cars. Most large dealers seem to be FordStores' and 71 dotted around the country is a good proportion of dealers I imagine.

Yeah I have called 10+ plus dealers by now, what you'll find is most Mach 1's coming in are already sold to customers, There are a few coming in here and there. In manchester for e.g the guy told me theres only 2 dealerships than can sell the mustang and Rs cars and they have been allotted 3 each

Salesman bullshit, there may well be 2 FordStores in Manchester itself but at least 7 if you include dealers in the general north west. It's not a huge area by any means.

Who are the ford stores in Manchester ?

Maybe I've just been lucky with the two I drive past but I have seen Mustangs in Bristol street (Bolton) and Pentagon (Warrington).

Both Bristol and Pentagon have multiple locations in the surrounding areas (Wigan, Macclesfield, St Helens, Runcorn etc).
