I just saw my first new Mondeo, very good I thought, it's a bit Mustang at the back

That's not 'new', looks nothing like a Mustang and is only available from stock. They stopped building Mondeos in January.

My first thought was that it looked like a Peugeot 508 which looks more like a Mustang than this does.

I don't think we'll be missing much.

Mondeos are far rarer than BMWs, but this looks good enough to bring many people back to the Ford/Mondeo fold.
The previous model seemed a bit slab sided, and frumpy, with a big distance between the top of the front wheel arches, and top of the front wing. (A classic frump mobile feature) but this seems to be a step in the right direction.
One of the best looking of any Fords, or any mass produced car IMO, was the model which preceded the one `this' car is replacing.

They are Chinese market only. Mondeo has been cancelled everywhere else.

That was my thoughts, but looks like one may have made it to UK?

Is it the UK? OP is being irritatingly quiet.

I did what?

I said they don't build Mondeos any more. Given OP is apparently in the UK, that was valid. I didn't question anybody's sanity, amd I'm not embarrassed.

You, however, are looking like a bit of a pillock, wading in late to try to find something to sneer at.
