So after seeing the eurostang, I've now seen a couple of Wild Ponies in the states
It looks amazing on the open highway, the sequential tail lights are pretty cool but overall the euro tail lights look better(more refined and up-market) imho
Side note - So glad to be out of that miserable...
Couldn't open the boot with the button or move the seats forward to get in the back :(
They had the battery unplugged and on charge for some reason

A few more pics
It had the reverse camera same as the US version
Had heated and cooled seats which I believe is an option on the EuroStang
I really can't get over how comfy the seats are, so supportive and soft. They have electric slide, height and lumbar support on the drivers...
Okay so here are the pics
So it does have auto folding mirrors, soft touch upper door trims.
The seats were soooo comfortable ( non Recaro )
Really does look stunning in the flesh (metalwork) [emoji13]
Overall compared with my previous car (Audi a5 cabrio) it has a much nicer...
Yeah I've just been, I'll upload some pics later.
Got to take the misses shopping in Derby to 'justify' the 30 mile trip to get here :(

I'll be there Saturday or Sunday with my camera and drooling mouth :P
I'm hoping the other car they mention will be the focus RS!! If not then it might be a Ford Edge in a UK prototype form

Be One of the First to Meet the Mustang in the Metal
As part of our celebratory event to mark the official launch of our Derby Ford Store, we've got a few very special guests this coming bank holiday weekend.
The UK spec Ford Mustang, will be in our Derby dealership between Friday 22nd May...
Tbh I'm not sure why these Euro spec cars don't have headlight washers built into the bumpers, as I understand that is mandatory with xenon lights in most Countries in the EU

Haha no it's not as exciting as that, it's just for a screw in tow hook, I think it's EU regulation or something but all vehicles seem to have them

Found this on autotrader.co.uk
Includes reg, tax, euro compliance conversion VAT and obviously a profit for the company selling it
So if anyone is that desperate to jump the gun on the real euro spec

Yeah I know it's meant to be more of an Arcade racing game rather than a simulation racing game. I've only played the beta so it probably has improved since. I was really hoping it was going to be as good as the trailers showed, but the one thing that really bugged me wasn't the graphics quality...
I had the beta a month or so back, let's say it's more Need for Speed or TDU2 than anything like Forza or Gran Turismo. Looks good but doesn't have that feeling of being connected to the car.

Yeah I think they are. There is no way a private importer can buy the car, pay for shipping, pay EU import tax, pay for modifying the car to Euro legal spec, register the vehicle, tax it and turn a profit and keep the cost lower than a global OEM like Ford.
I doubt Ford will charge €50k plus...
Just to let you guys know I posted a thread about the above spec sheets
Yeah the backup camera is standard across all US models so it would make sense for this to be standard in Europe too

It is a really good in depth review, although can be a little misleading to the non mustang freaks (I.e. Us lot :P ) when describing some of the options ( he describes the GT pp alloys while showing picture of premium ecoboost ) maybe it's just me :P

Haha yeah he does start all his videos as if he's a 16 year old girl at a Bieber concert but after he gets over that the reviews are quite detailed

Yeah I know kinda put me off too but at the end of the day he wasn't forcing anyone to donate, he even said "go ahead donate to charity before thinking of donating to the mustang"
Glad he got what he wanted though and he even put in extra to pay for premium
