Ford Mondeo Hatchback 2.5 Zetec S 5d (2002/52) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
It is a lot of car for the price, if you buy it used, but it will depreciate like a stone.
Costs
It drinks petrol if you put your foot down, the best you will get when cruising is 30mpg. It is insurance group 15 so the insurance costs a fortune. The tyres are £800 a set, luckily my car had a set of new tyres put on it before I bought it.

On the road
Driving
The car is brilliant in the corners, this is partly due to the ESP and tyres. You can throw it into any corner and it will sort itself out.
Performance
The V6 engine makes a brilliant noise, and it is like a rocket when you put your foot down.

Living with it
Reliability
I havent had a problem with it yet.
Image
The body kit makes it look fast, yet it is a very discrete car, apart from the two V6 badges on either side of the car.
Comfort
The seats are comfy and you will fit people of most sizes in.

Security and Service
Security
My car is fitted with an alarm, but I think this sort of car will attract thieves so keep it in a garage.
