• New Galaxy/Mondeo/S-MAX/SAV Interior 23 Feb 2006 (Forum)
  There's a thread on here about the look of the "new Mondeo"... won't add it's actually the IOSIS concept car and not a Mondeo (IMHO the Mondeo will be toned down a "bit"). But looking at the Ford website tonight gives an idea how the new interior might look. There's a shot of the SAV (like the IOSIS) and the actual Galaxy. Doesn't take a great mind to conclude the Galaxy is not disimilar and how the new Mondeo might look.

• Suzuki Vitara 2015 on - Looking to buy a Vitara Or SX4 S Cross 12 Nov 2020 (Forum)
  Hi  Im looking for some advice as I will shortly be in the market for a 2015 or later Vitara auto.  I am lead to believe the early auto units are the twin clutch breed, I would like to know if these are reliable and do not have the cultch trouble of some other makes.  I was considering a ford Kuga until I searched for info on this site and thought otherwise As I currently average around 15,000 miles per annum prior to lock down and it looks as if I'll be doing around 8,000, the diesel option would be out.

• Car Makers & Build Quality!! 6 Oct 2006 (Forum)
  Hi Over the last 15/17 years, I've only driven German cars - Audi's up until recently and now a Merc. I've heard about the brand new Moneo soon to be launched and been in the Ford S Max and the current Mondeo Ghia. I've also been in the new GM Zifira and Vectra about a year ago. Must admit, that all the models were close to the top end of their range. My point is this - do the majority of new Fords/Vauxhall have similar or better build quality than Mercs and BMW - Audi is being caught up too.
