just bought a 2009 2.0 TDCI Titanium X with all the option boxes ticked. my grandad drives a 2010 3.0 V6 Jag XF, and this mondeo drives just as good as the jag, and has even more kit in it. absolutely love it. A big step up from my little 1.4 fiat punto that I previously had.

[@ashleyowen7952]

You are a legend I’ve just found my aux in my Mondeo lol🔥

[@BarrieCrampton]

Glad i could help

I have a 2008 2.0 petrol in zetec trim. I've added a bit of Chrome and changed the standard ford radio for a Sony one. Bought the complete set of speakers from a Ghia model to match the radio. Very nice cars to drive, solid with no rattles. The 2.0 duratec engine in it is surprisingly economical. I was averaging 36mpg which when you consider it weighs 70kgs more than the MK3 is good. I thought about having a diesel but with high miles things can get expensive.

[@BarrieCrampton]

we have had a few high mileage diesels, and not really had any problems with them

[@s.tranger1074]

Sound level poor!

[@MarshLaKkt]

The thing that i hate the most about Mk4 Mondeos, mine included, is the centre console plastic trim squeaking a lot, you can hear in video as well.

[@BarrieCrampton]

IlieSiAtat little bit creaky i suppose but some of the noises on this video probably come from my knees 😎

[@marklittler784]

Like cruise control, somtimes it can fail to work simply because of dirt that needs blowing out from behind the steering wheel buttons or some car cleaning fluid behind them. 18 inch wheels seem to go through tyres in no time. Parking sensors are an advantage. Mondeos are roomy comfy and quiet. Massive boot if it has a space saver wheel. Lot of good quality replica parts available.

[@safarisedan]

I had one of these it was the best car I ever owned the spec was amazing sadly it was written off,but I replaced it with a titanium x sport 2.2 diesel

[@brendanbradyfan3589]

I prefer this shape Mondeo over the last mk5 which they made

[@BarrieCrampton]

Nice shape and drives as good as most "luxury marque saloons"

[@trumpetandsaxophone]

I agree with that

[@interceptor-ss8kb]

Good solid cars way better then the Mk5 that replaced it .

[@garf1978]

sup with the sound looooooooooooooooool

[@BarrieCrampton]

you haven't got your speakers switched on

[@novell80]

The big issue with these newer Diesel engines is, the DPF destroys the engine on long term. Today because of the DPF you can't buy a Diesel car if you drive in majority in the city. The DPF become clogged and in addition you've to chance the engine oil more frequently.

[@Generalkenobi325]

Just get the dpf removed, your engine will breath alot cleaner and you’ll gain some ooomphhh

[@novell80]

​@@Generalkenobi325And what can be put on when I get the dpf removed? 😊

[@Generalkenobi325]

@@novell80 I believe the original section remains as the dpf is simply gutted out from the inside so visually it’ll look like it’s still there :)

[@novell80]

@@Generalkenobi325 I know what you mean. However, to do that is not as easy as you think.

[@Generalkenobi325]

@@novell80 have a look round for a local company that can do it for you they can also map your ecu to to make it more fuel efficient by recognising that it’s been removed. It shouldn’t be expensive as a lot of companies advertise it now

[@johnnymetalheart8097]

what are your thoughts about the 2014 titanum x automatic, is the transmission problematic?

[@BarrieCrampton]

weve never had a problem with one yet, but i have seen reports that other people have

[@andrewhalford142]

Test drove one of these yesterday and bought it straight away. By the handbrake is a little switch, any idea what it does?

[@BarrieCrampton]

Hill Hold?

[@johnchambers1573]

What is the better drive out of the insignia or mondeo. from your experience

[@williamwood395]

Mondeo by far

[@MilutinKojic]

What you think about sound insulation?

[@BarrieCrampton]

As good as any on a car that old, nice to drive well equipped and comfortable too

[@MilutinKojic]

Ok, does it have bluetooth? Can i listen music over bluetooth and is sound quality good?

[@BarrieCrampton]

Milutin Kojić yes, yes and yes

[@MilutinKojic]

Barrie Crampton Haha, thank you! One more question, how that car accelerate in 3 or 4 gear? For example for overtaking.

[@BarrieCrampton]

Its good, excellent from low speeds in high gears too, good all round performance

when you say car seats are "hard wearing" is that dealer`s talk which REALLY means "HARD and UNCOMFORTABLE" 🙄🙄🙄

You might want to hold in the handbrake button when engaging the handbrake... helps not to wear out the ratchet. Nice car -

[@BarrieCrampton]

been in the motor trade 45 Years, never ever replaced a ratchet on a handbrake on any of the cars I've had in stock, or owned

[@Liam94Smith]

That's a myth

[@lostepisode3]

I actually had a bmw were the handbrake ratchet was worn out, so i had it replaced.

[@alanjm1234]

​@@Liam94Smithit's not a myth, although most people will probably never use the handbrake enough to wear the ratchet. But my driving instructor showed me the old handbrake lever he'd had to replace in his car because it wore out the ratchet pawl. Obviously the handbrake on a driving school car gets an unusually high amount of use, but it's not a myth.

[@Generalkenobi325]

The handbrake won’t hold properly if you push the button in it’s designed to be a ratchet so that as you pull it up it locks properly in between the teeth, pushing the button in risks it popping back out so you only use it when releasing the handbrake. You’ll never wear out the teeth on the ratchet

[@idkidkidk3904]

You said 130mph lol 😂, its a 160mph mate

Maybe if they dropped it from the Space Station it would do 160 mph
