Ford Mondeo 2.3 Review: Mondeo Magic
It may not be a direct competitor to the BMW 3 series, but somehow, Ford has managed to do up the Mondeo with some pretty good BMW-ish driving characteristics.
Enthusiastic drivers will be rewarded too. Corners, when taken hard and fast, doesn’t seem to shake the Mondeo. In fact, you can still push it hard, ease off the accelerator when u sense understeer setting in, correct your steering and next you know, you’re back in line – all this possible thanks to the well sorted suspension set-up, and the Electronic Stability Program (ESP). Even the body-roll doesn’t set in rudely. Safe to say, the new Mondeo is presently one of the best front-wheel driven car at this side of the competition.
Undeniably, this new Mondeo feels premium and almost feels like driving a Volvo.
It’s obvious why the Mondeo is touted as the 3-series beater in other markets. The Mondeo’s a well-packaged car, drives very well, has a spacious interior, a well-sculpted exterior, and to top it all off, an engine that’s willing to work its way.
Well, if you’ve always wanted a 3-series and find the asking price way off your budget, the Mondeo is something worth settling for. Forget those nay-sayers you always turn to for “advice” – the Mondeo is a good car overall.
It’s just one of those car, that after driving it, will leave you with a big impression...
