New Ford Mustang 5.0 V8
« on: 03 April 2016, 20:05:02 »

... brand new, right hand drive, for £33k. 

Surely that's got to appeal to some of you nutters  :)

Insurance group prob 50E plus £500 road tax after 1st year.  Nce cars though, have driven the standard V6 in the states, bit of a 'muscle' car.  Manual's will be a fun drive until you check the fuel guage LOL :y

No...I'd prefer a V8 Chevrolet, much like the one you once owned.

Remind me, was it a Corvette or a Camaro?

Neither of those. You wouldn't get a dog crate and a family of five into one of those useless things.  ;D

Drove the V8 Mustang for a fortnight when we were in the US a couple of years ago & I loved it a lot of car for the money .I think after a couple of years that a low mileage one could be bought for decent money, I would certainly have one .

Yes be interesting to see how second hand prices stack up, I bet the V8's will hold value and V6's would be cheap in a few years?

I thought there where only 2 engine choices for the UK, The 5.0 V8 and the 2.3 4-cylinder ecoboost engines?

Ah yes, for some reason I thought it was V6 or V8   :-[

But yeah, I can't see the 4 potter holding it's value well, imagine a 2.2 4 pot Monaro  ::)  ;D

What is this weird fetish with V8s? It's only an engine.


And you do know that it's a 310hp 4 pot, not the weedy thing that Vx foisted on the Omega?
The biggest reason not to buy it is that the 5.0l is only a couple of grand more expensive
