The G Man Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 News just in , apparently, Ford are limiting the Mustang to 1400 a year in the UK, after the initial 3000, this along with a new Ford re-map, with full warranty, moving up the power to a modest 440bhp. Happy days 2 Quote

choptop Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Well my test drive finally came today. I was really looking forward to it as it has been a long time coming. Now I could give my honest opinion but don't think those of you who have bought one would find my comments very encouraging. All I will say that the engine was lovely and growled a treat. Should we leave it there. Everyone to their own Quote
Ekona Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 I'd appreciate your opinion fella, PM if you really don't want to share. Quote
jimboy2 Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Trust me, the people who have one ordered won't be cancelling on your opinion. We have seen ALL of the reviews good and bad. You either love the car or you don't. Would love to hear your view on it. 1 Quote

Should we leave it there. Everyone to their own Share it on the thread, it's about the 'Stang, love to hear it and what other V8 you compare it with. Keep it to brand new and 35k, there's a good chap Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 ...... But there is a reason it's 35k brand new . No other company would build such a car for that price as its not achievable with out cutting corners and using substandard materials . Quote

No other company would build such a car for that price as its not achievable with out cutting corners and using substandard materials . Oh well I'd better cancel then and keep my 370, or buy a 350, or a second hand German car What utter pee pee What are you basing your assumptions on? Edited March 12, 2016 by The G Man Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Who else does make a v8 new for 35k ? And the reason no one else does at that price ? In all honesty i think the mustang should have been 45k and better built . Im sure you and many others will love owning one .... And you'll get lots of admiring looks along the way im sure Quote

Oh well I'd better cancel then and keep my 370, or buy a 350, or a second hand German car What utter pee pee What are you basing your assumptions on? After i spent an hour in one , as i was seriously considering one myself . I loved things about it and with all the mods you have lined up im sure it will be alot better . Its just the interior was shocking ..... Surley you must have picked up on this? The quality was terrible ...... And this is coming from someone who owned a humbly 350z .! My 2nd hand german car is what i wanted ....... Does it matter to me that its not brand new ? No , im not out to impress anyone . Does my 2nd hand car have things i dont like? Yes..... But not as many as the mustang had Quote
The G Man Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Yeah, no one does, there's a reason for that as well. My assumption is there's a bit of a badge premium from other manufacturers, I could splash out 35k for a reasonably well spec'ed diesel 420 BMW, however, it's not a V8 and it's too expensive for what it is. That's my assumption, again, what's yours? At choptop, why not put your view up based on the 30 minute, if that test drive? If it was longer, say, a weekend, then it would be more tangible, however, to turn it into a mystery.... Then Dan, wanting him to pm it ;lol: :lol: Not sure if he's just having a laugh himself Quote

Bodyboarder81 Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Cant argue with badge premium , as i agree . But have you test driven 2nd hand v8 or 35k cars to see what else you can get? Or are you a must have new type chap? 1 Quote
The G Man Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Second hand cars are full of other people's faecal matter and nose droppings Yes I must have new, do you want to buy my iPhone 4? Or are you a new phone type guy Quote
Bodyboarder81 Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 take that as a no then ..... Shame , you're missing out on some nice cars ! Anyway ..... G-man loves the mustang Bodyboarder does not G-man bought a mustang Bodyboarder didnt All is well with the world 2 Quote
The G Man Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 That's true bro' Well, I don't know if I like it, I'm beginning to get second thoughts, what if it's frightful? How will I ever live with myself? I'll need to get the thoughts and mind salve of my daughter and her partner (both mental health professionals), hoping I'm going to be ok!?! Oh well, WTF, you're dead a long time 1 Quote
DoogyRev Posted March 12, 2016 Posted March 12, 2016 Who else does make a v8 new for 35k ? And the reason no one else does at that price ? My Truck was less than 35k (if you do the conversion) and its got a 5.7 Hemi V8 . . Brrrrmmmmmmmmmmm The interior is also a darn sight nicer than the mustang . . or fords in general. We did the rounds when buying Bob . . yes I sat in the Mustang. The fords so stick out as having "much plastic" everywhere. Quote
