  1. Autoexpress UK Review (EcoBoost)

    They do seem to pick and choose comparisons to the detriment of the Mustang. Comparing the price of the Mustang to the 420i should be a point towards the former but instead they talk about the weight. Surely the 435i's would be a better comparison which is 80kg more than the 420i and thus not...
  2. Autoexpress UK Review (EcoBoost)

    http://www.autoexpress.co.uk/ford/mustang/88696/new-ford-mustang-2015-review Bit of a mixed review this but includes a quick comparison between the PP and non-PP car.

    OMG :O My jaw is just hanging there...
  4. PistonHeads Review (EcoBoost)

    I think a lot of that might come from expectation and perception. The US press are used to testing Mustangs so they can compare the new one directly to the previous generations. The UK press on the other hand always view American cars as being great in a straight line but not much else, so for...

  6. Adaptive Cruise Control

    The car will brake for you though. As an example in my dad's Mondeo with just standard CC, if you set the speed to say 50mph and you start driving down a slope, the car will brake to maintain the speed, and you can physically feel the brake being applied under your foot! And it's also why ACC...
  7. Adaptive Cruise Control

    For proper overtaking, I agree. It's more if you want to get to the speed you intended to go at where the car in front might not allow you to. Not necessarily overtaking as such. Again it really depends on what the road situation is. There are some good videos out there showing exactly how ACC...
  8. Adaptive Cruise Control

    I'm not sure you quite understood me. If you're in stop/start traffic, or on a busy highway where traffic will be changing speed from say 50mph down to 25mph regularly as an example, ACC isn't needed because you're likely to be constantly accelerating/decelerating and changing gears. However, as...
  9. Adaptive Cruise Control

    I can only tell you from experience but I realise everyone is different. In my case, it actually made me more alert because whilst I knew my car would adjust its speed accordingly to the car in front, you never know what they can do so my foot was always at the ready to intervene. I think some...
  10. Adaptive Cruise Control

    It doesn't encourage you to be less attentive. You still have to be aware what's in front off you. If anything, it's somewhat of a safety measure because you set your car to be a certain (safe) distance behind a car so if they do something stupid, you have plenty of time to react. It beats...
  11. Adaptive Cruise Control

    I'm not sure I understand you. The whole point of cruise control is so that you don't constantly have to accelerate/decelerate on the freeway and to just cruise along comfortably. You seem to like that which is fine so why would you not like ACC which takes that idea even further! If you...
  12. Adaptive Cruise Control

    It adapts to the speed of the car in front of you, it has nothing to do with shifting gears. You are still in control of that. Using ACC, you set the speed you want to travel at and the gap to the car in front of you. If the car in front of you slows down, or someone gets in front of you, the...
  13. 2015 Ford Mustang to receive 10-speed gearbox - report

    That confused me as well. I wonder if part of the delay in getting the Mustang to Europe is due to them waiting for the 10 speed automatic to be ready.
  14. 2016/17 Fusion (or maybe Taurus?) spy shots

    2016/2017 sounds about right for a facelift, and the interior looks like some of the S-Max concepts they showed recently.
  15. Mustang in Europe [Update: Ordering begins May 24]

    It's not as bad as you guys over here. It would probably be ÂŁ500 for the 5.0L and about half that for the EB per year to tax.
  16. Mustang in Europe [Update: Ordering begins May 24]

    If it was half that and in RHD, I'd be tempted :p.
  17. Mustang in Europe [Update: Ordering begins May 24]

    Just got an email saying I didn't make the shortlist for the first 500 but I could still be among the first in line late 2015...
  18. What Are You Excited For?

    Then you'd have two sets of keys to carry :P
  19. DIB/Guard/Ingot

    They look so good! Add Ruby Red to that and that would be my top 4 choice. Would make it easier to choose my favourite...
