Like many people before me, I would like to share with other Mondeo's owners the purchase of my latest Mondeo MD Titanium diesel in magnetic colour (5 months old with 3000km).
It is my third Mondeo after MA diesel and MC Zetec Ecoboost. I highly recommend the upgrade to anyone considering it. It is worth it. The ride and equipment quality is outstanding. I was waiting for the MY 17.5 model with new 19 inch wheels (better looking and easier to clean). Hopefully, many good years of driving pleasure ahead of me. Regards Greg |

I'm seriously considering buying the 19" rims to put on my 2016 Mondeo. I loved the look of them when they first came out in Europe, yet for some inexplicable reason Ford didn't offer them here until recently. My second choice was the 10 double spoke 18" rims, which I've got - I didn't like the standard ones at all. It'll probably cost me an arm and a leg to upgrade to 19" though. And I'll end up with four 18" rims that I wouldn't know what to do with. I doubt there'd be many takers.

I tried unsuccessfully to upload the pictures. I followed online explanations, but still no go. I will try again to find some more info how to do it.
As far as the new wheels are concern, there is hardly any break dust left on them after driving, so I lightly dust them of with cloth one per week. The have a special smooth coating which darker on the inside the wheels. There is very easy access to the inside the wheels to keep them clean and nice looking. My last MC Zetec Ecoboost wheels needed full wash (from break dust) twice per week to keep them looking clean. Greg |

Dear Cobrin,
Thank you for my crowning as a True Believer. Also, in regards to the new diesel engine, it is another step up from the previous versions (I think it's made by Peugeot, one of the best diesel engines manufacturers). It is smooth and quiet with hardly any lag. The 400Nm torque gives great pull and acceleration at any speed. Finally, it is nice to see the average fuel consumption between 6.6-6.8l/100km in a city driving. |
