UK Bullitt’s - Further Release

[Stellify78]

Apologies if this has been mentioned on the forum.

This afternoon I popped into the Ford Dealership in Lisburn Northern Ireland, to pick up a hard copy of the Mustang Brochure and enquired about the availability of the Bullitt’s out of noseyness.

The sales rep informed me Ford plan to release another batch of Bullitt’s for the UK market and he would be able to supply me with one.

This might be useful for anyone looking for a Bullitt and not wanting to pay the premium some third parties are charging.

Sadly for me the monthly sums are not adding up.

You will need to get in quick though as I suspect it will only be a couple per dealer ?

I would imagine so - The salesman said he sold 3 from the inital allocations when they were launched. He also managed to source a cancellation for a customer in England during the week.

Future classic I suspect. It is amazing what rare performance Fords make. Just look at Escort Mexico's, Capri 280 Brooklands, RS1600 Escorts, Sierra Cosworth's (especially RS500), Mk1 RS Focus ….

I was told that MY19 allocation sold out before it was made available through dealers and further allocations would be released for MY20 so this fits with what you’re reporting I think....

Evans Halshaw are taking orders for the Bullitt's for any of you mainland guys in the market for one.

Couldnt agree more - Classic written all over it!

As mentioned yesterday they are a out of my budget...I’d have wait until depreciation kicks in to afford one. Would it be realistic so see one these under the £35k mark at some stage in the future?

Not any time soon so long as there are people out there with more financial clout than financial sense. Anyone that wants one now can pick it up used for 10k more than the OTR price.

This is like the Focus RS editions, “be quick as limited numbers are being built!” Then soon as those order books are full release a load more build slots.

I know a chap in Beanacre who is looking for one. They are a collectors pony.

Yes they should keep their value well and maybe even increase in time.

Must admit I did find it strange the Bullitt was still available on Ford UK’s website for configuration.

How many UK Bullitts were produced for the initial run?

 

[Spider]

There's supposed to be 350 in total over 2 years....but first year orders were pushed back due to demand from other markets...so don't know sorry

I'm guessing by my chassis number and manufacturing date that ford has made about 5000 worldwide at this time

Is anyone actually able to confirm/deny that they will open the order books for the bullitt again?
