Any ford guys on here?

Just wandering if anyone is a ford guy on here. I used to be but I think Im getting into VWs because I just like the quality, design and reliabilty of them. Skodas, Seats, Audis etc all Dubs so big fan of them. If anyone is a ford fan on here we are competitors but VW is better obviously 😂.

I’m a Ford fan. Nothing can beat the Escort Cosworth, the bog standard Escort, and the mk4 and mk4 facelift Fiesta.

Yo Ive got to admit the classic fords are nice, Ive been in a xr3 escort mk3 I think and It was actually so nice, I felt that classical feeling of the 80s. The hazard like switch glows up flashes when you turn the hazards on, just things like that.

The modern fords are nice but its like the latest RS Focus is good but it just feels looks like a normal ecoboost mk3 inside with the plastics. The equivilant golf gti is like there standard golf but even that they are more quality and better materials. I mean the mk2 and mk1 rs I prefer to mk3 I think. Also the standard focus mk2 and mk1 I just prefer to the focus our days. With vw, I like all of their models.
The Ford focus is a great car but the Ford escort isn't.

I agree modern Fords are ****. But I’m gonna stay loyal. Plus, I’ll never buy a German car. They’re too efficient and boring to drive.

Actually, nah that does look good ngl. I prefer fiesta to focus though but with Dubs I prefer Golf to Polo, I feel like thats how it should be.
Fords are the best! Honestly can’t wait till I get a Fiesta as a first car! They are just lovely and smooth vehicles to drive: I’m not sure about the new Fiesta’s though, they look nice but as cheap and tacky as a Corsa 🤷🏻*♂️

Which fiesta are you getting?

Nice one!!! What engine size is it? And also that weirdly looks like a familiar place...

Ty, it’s my car! Fiestas really are so great to drive.

Not a brand new one. I’d happily get an MK6 for a bit (2006-2008) then maybe a MK8... MK6 has always attracted to me as the proper Fiesta, and that they look stronger than the MK7 and any KA.

I’d say they are, family members have owned a few in the past and they always complimented them for their smoothness. Also the fact that they are a lot nicer than a Corsa, which apparently are quite jerky and underpowered on steep hills...

Vauxhall’s look good, but Ford’s drive better and don’t catch fire 😆

Take it you want a fiesta too?
