| Ford must have looked hard at the Passat before designing the current Mondeo. It's Passat-sized (and thus far bigger than the previous car), and it's very well made. The tie-breaker? It's cheaper than the VW but drives better. Mondeo plays its winning hand with a neatly laid out cabin, good safety features and generous equipment. Drivers like its taut, responsive steering and reassuring grip; it feels quite sporty even with the smaller engines. A relaxed open-road cruiser, it's also nimble around town. Passengers like the generous leg- and headroom, plus the supple ride. 1.8 and 2.0 petrol engines are the commonest choice; the 2.0 has a slight performance edge. The 2.5 V6 is smoothly powerful but thirsty. Best diesel is the swift and refined TDCi 130 bhp unit. The older 2.0 TDi is a bit noisy. Running costs are sensible for a big car, though initial depreciation is quite steep. |
