Was in Peter Stirland Ford (Hungerford) a couple of times recently and had another very positive experience. In for an intermediate oil change and they picked up and dealt with a warranty issue - seamlessly, the way it should be! The owner's Magnetic MY18 is now sold but I wouldn't be...

Ben, You'll find that Stirland of Hungerford are already pretty well versed in 'things Mustang', they are my local Ford Dealer and look after mine. Although not a designated FordStore they have supplied several S550 Mustangs locally, fitted mods and have run a couple of new Mustangs within...

Mine arrived in the UK between Christmas and New Year, wheel only. Ordered in May. Fits as described in the spare wheel well and on the car.

Then the early birds got the worm :D ! USPS worked well and is (nearly 3 times) less expensive than their UPS option.

Nick, best to go through their ordering process up to the payment method to get an accurate quote as the prices have changed. I placed my order back in May of this year before the product was even available and received a pre-order discount at that time. Automotive Authority seem very 'active'...

The Automotive Authority solution is now shipping - a correctly sized wheel which will fit over the larger brakes AND also in the spare wheel well has been a long time coming. It has the same rolling diameter as the GT rears so will not strain the limited slip diff when in use on the rear...

And another for the more 'depreciation conscious' :lol: http://www.boatwright.co.uk/american_vehicle/2008-ford-mustang-shelby-gt500-convertible/

“Watch what you pay for an S197 since they’re starting to look expensive against the S550 Mk6.” Autocar 13/20 December 2017 From £9k - £25k, according to the article Why you need a used (S197) Ford Mustang in your life. Two page feature in the latest edition of Autocar mag - special Christmas...

The only visual cues on a car outfitted with the new Performance Pack Level 2 are black detailing on the splitter and spoiler, the tire spat on the back edge of the rear wheel wells and the 10-spoke Dark Tarnish wheels, which are exclusive.

New Mustang GT Performance Pack Level 2 - US Specs New Mustang GT Performance Pack Level 2 raises Mustang GT’s game and bridges the gap between GT Performance Pack and GT350 Performance Pack Level 2 is accentuated by a lower, more aggressive stance, aerodynamically balanced high-performance...

Same /\. I find Autoglym's Rapid Detailer does a good job on black plastics if you are between washes.

Michelin UK told me today that standard UK S550 GT sizes will be available this month and provided the following product codes: CAI 337467, for the MICHELIN Pilot Sport 4 S in 255/40 ZR 19 100(Y) CAI 946969, for the MICHELIN Pilot Sport 4 S in 275/40 ZR 19 105(Y)

All of Ford's RHD '17 Mustangs at their sell-out UK "Go Faster" event are running on PS 4S tyres - and very nice they were too for the timed Mustang 'Shakedown' run, felt VERY grippy. Michelin are the event tyre sponsor. http://ford.to/GoFasterUK

All that "Yada, yada, yada", and then the truth finally comes out in the final sentence :clap2: "...gunning it from a standstill, the automatic felt faster, also when up changing on paddles though its not instant to the paddle input the car never lets off the gas, giving seamless acceleration...

Hmmm ... that IS interesting/puzzling! Mine is going in on Tuesday for an oil change and service and will be staying in the garage once West Berkshire Council start chucking salt on the roads. Will be interesting to track the % oil life remaining with very occasional use over the Winter into...

I suspect that if it were possible to unpick the sloppy PDI resets then it probably does work as intended. Repeated full throttle, full load applications will likely lower oil life into the 5 - 7.5k mile oil change interval. For the cost of an oil change, are the longer term repercussions of...

I suspect that it is easier than some think to slip into the 'severe use' scenario where oil changes come up at 5k - 7.5k miles. It depends on how you drive and in any case 'normal' duty cycles can trigger an oil change and service from 7.5k. Early S550s may well have been subject to sloppy PDIs...

Don't forget that Autos have an Adaptive Learning feature. If the battery has been disconnected or you've been driving like Miss Daisy then the tranny has to relearn its strategy for more 'spirited' use. I have a Ford Performance resonator delete X-pipe on my GT Auto and I don't think it...

Couldn't resist it either, Nick - drifting. J-turns and handbrake parking - what's not to like!

Have a Ford Performance resonator delete X-Pipe with an otherwise standard factory system on a GT Auto. Measured on two occasions for track sound level test (4000-ish RPM, 1 meter from tailpipe) - 99 dB at one venue and 101 dB at another. No drone and tone consistent with a modern 32 valve, quad...
