Press Reviews

[Manders Mustang]

You think it is a car just for Guardian and Daily Mail readers?

My favourite ridiculous line from the review was "Details such as the dials being backlit in a green that clashes with the rest of the interior lighting at night adds to the budget feel."...

Does he know he can change the colour...!?

He probably didn't know how to open the door, and was mythed to see a push to start button like they're something new. I'm sure he left the drive in this, got into his 1.6L astra, trundled home changing gears when the 'non-budget' dials told him too (In that pesky budget green shift light).

How about inviting him to a meet then everyone change their dial colour to green and moan about it all day.

:lol: "I love my car but such a shame that the dials are green...doesn't match the car. Steering us super light & I'm sliding all over the place as if there is no traction control"

I wonder if the editors were like, we wonder how badly we can leave this guy in the rut, we'll make the car as ugly as possible, take the TC off, put steering on the most brutal setting, and then throw it into snow/wet mode for good measure so the car doesn't move. The perfect telegraph troll :lol:

The Telegraph's car reviews are generally nonsense and best ignored. Unless it has a German car badge they will more than likely rubbish the car. If they give the Mustang a 2/10 for the interior I'd like to known the rating they give something like a VW Up?

Just looked, 10/10 for dashboard layout which i expect is similar to interior and 8/10 for space! I suppose they are comparing the space to a toy model car?

Telegraph review now on video - doesn't come out as scathing as the print (and he doesn't drive it at night so no comments about green instruments):

Is it me or does it look like this car is lowered?

Do you think Ford might have had a word in his shell-like, so the video edit has removed some of the factual errors? ......
