Apparently Ford’s "award-winning Focus RS and Mustang" have just been voted Best Hot Hatch and Drop Top at the 2016 Scottish Car of the Year by the Association of Scottish Motoring Writers.
So what better way to celebrate that than with a picture of a coupe :crazy:

and the second line says drop top, there were two awards, but instead of showing a picture of a convertible, they used a picture of a coupe

I deleted the email yesterday but just clocked the Apollo edition thingy on your screenshot (only appears when you click the link). "Now for sale in Europe" I'm a fan of anything space related and I think that model is cool so clicked the link only to be taken to an article from July 2015 :shrug: good job Ford.

Is that thing actually for sale in Europe? Pretty cool if it was...

Bear in mind the Ford UK marketing department are so "switched on" that they can put the "shadow" versions in the price list without actually telling anyone that they are available!

Why am I not surprised?

Is on the website now - I saw it this morning. Bit of a joke really, whoever comes up with this stuff needs to be shot;

"Distinctive, exclusive and potent, Mustang Shadow Edition puts other sports coupés in the shade. The black bonnet stripes, lower door stripes, black badging and unique 19! black painted alloy wheels, provide a striking contrast to your chosen exterior colour."

Any one of us on here could come up with something better, not the marketing jargon but the "special edition" features too.
