PaulAshman Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 Just picked up my copy today of this weeks Auto Express. There is an article on the 30 greatest Ford's ever. Only snag is no mk 1 and 2 escorts, no mk 1 or 2 cortinas and no anglias. I was very surprised especially as there is mk xr2 and an xr3i, aargh!!! However on a plus point two capris!!!!
orionmojo Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 WTF? no heritage then! and i'll bet they talk about the RS200 'paving the way'
PaulAshman Posted May 9, 2007 Author Report Posted May 9, 2007 To quote the mag 'arguably the most famous is the rs cosworth launched in 1986' Try a mk1 mexico i say!!!
ZetecVan 2.0 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 No Mk1 or 2 Escorts? So did it list the Puma? Was the Probe in the top ten? I have to laugh, on the cover it says 'The 30th Greatest Fords EVER' Then further down it says Features44 The 30 greatest Fords Exclusive shoot spanning 30 years So 30 years constitutes 'for ever' then does it?
mk2_escort_chick Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 they're obviously not used to "real cars"!!!

FOUR Focus models? Granada MK3? Wasn't that the one that became the scorpio that no one liked? All Four Mondeo Models...? I have a feeling the person who wrote the list was struggling for ideas.
andrewg1323 Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 I read that list and think christ ford have made some shite aint they!
lee_capri Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 well their is no acount for taste prehaps the bloke who made the list was borne in the early 90s and done to much speed so he is all blured still
Gareth Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 Must be done on a vote system where 20+ year old Escort owners need not apply
GT_Jim Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 S-max? are they on crack although it is good they have gotten rid of the girly image with the Ka ST but a car thats designed for new drivers this isnt going to go down well with insurence people
Mr Sam Posted May 9, 2007 Report Posted May 9, 2007 obv the writer is about 20 and never come acros fords older than himself
