  Ford Fiesta Van (2009 - 2013) (Van Reviews)
  Taking the Fiesta - a car renowned for its sharp handling and impressive refinement - and creating a van version was an obvious move for Ford. It's proved a popular choice for small businesses based in busy towns and cities and is a van well-liked by those who spend all day behind the wheel

  the Hyundai i10’s.) An irritation is that there’s no space inside the rear hatch handle to fit a microswitch, like the 500’s. So the only way to open it is either with the key or to press the boot opener on the remote twice. Ford’s response to our criticism

  Ford Kuga 2008 Road Test 3 Jun 2008 (roadtest)
  What do you do when you’re second last to join the party? Everyone else has been there for hours. Some even from 5 o’clock. So how do you suddenly become life and soul? For the small SUV shindig, Ford made its Kuga best to drive. There are gimmicks

  Ford Mondeo 2007 Road Test 24 Apr 2007 (roadtest)
  and options that no two Mondeos in the 50,000 a year Ford expects to sell in the UK need be exactly alike. And the production line in Genk, Belgium, is so flexible, it can instantly switch between Mondeo saloons, Mondeo hatchbacks, Mondeo estates, S-Max and Galaxys. Currently producing 860 a day it can

  Ford Galaxy 2006 Road Test 20 May 2006 (roadtest)
  alongside the new S-Max, instead of in Portugal along with the VW Sharan and SEAT Alhambra that shared almost everything apart from their badges. The old Galaxy sold a solid 10,000 a year in the UK; 100,000 over ten years, making it consistently the best selling 7 seater in the UK

  Ford Focus ST (2005 - 2011) (Reviews)
  Fast Fords have been around a lot longer than fast VWs. Think back to the original Ford Cortina GT and Ford Lotus Cortina. In those days VWs still had sluggish flat-four engines in the boot. It actually took VW another ten years to come up with the Golf, and thirteen to launch the Sloane's

  Ford Fiesta ST (2004 - 2008) (Reviews)
  Ford model ranges are never complete until there's a quick one. And now, at last, there's a fast Fiesta. Road Test and Video Ford Fiesta ST 2013

  Ford Mondeo 2001 Road Test 14 Jan 2002 (roadtest)
  When you first drive the new Ford Mondeo it feels fantastic. Then it gets better. Quite simply, it out-classes everything else in its class, and most of the next class as well. Get in and the first thing that strikes you is the '90s sportiness of the cockpit. Lots

  Ford Focus RS (2002 - 2003) (Classics Reviews)
  The phrase ‘gamechanger’ gets over used, but when the Mk1 Ford Focus was launched that’s exactly what it was. Few cars could hold a candle to it on the forecourt and even fewer could get close to it on track. At the time, there were rumours that the amount of money spent
• 
  Ford Transit Connect (2002 - 2014) (Van Reviews)
  Ford took the small van market by storm when it introduced the Transit Connect in 2002. Here was a small van that could almost give most larger panel vans a run for their payload and at a much more affordable price. The Transit

  Ford Mondeo and ST220 (2000 - 2007) (Classics Reviews)
  You'd be hard pressed to complete even the shortest journey without seeing a Ford Mondeo. It's one of the most popular models in the UK and with every new version it has improved to become a superb all-rounder. Comfortable, good to drive and spacious, the Ford Mondeo out-classes

  Ford Granada Scorpio (1985 - 1998) (Classics Reviews)
  technology. In fact, the Granada Mk3's main claim to fame was that it was the first European car to offer ABS across the range as standard. In Europe, the all-new car received an all-new name – Scorpio – but in the UK Ford didn't want to risk further alienating existing customers with its new
• 
  Ford Fiesta Mk2 (1983 - 1989) (Classics Reviews)
  The Ford Fiesta Mk2 was a significant facelift of the original 1976 car. Given that the Mk1 Fiesta was Ford's most costly to develop car to that point, it's an understandable exercise in making the investment pay by stretching it out for as long as possible. But despite the same-again looks
• 
  Ford Escort RS1600i (1982 - 1985) (Classics Reviews)
  The Ford Escort RS1600i was built purely to meet Group A homologation regulations. The RS1600i was based on the XR3, but featured fuel injection - several months before that car - and more body addenda to differentiate itself from the series production car it was based upon. When
• 
  Ford Fiesta XR2 (1981 - 1989) (Classics Reviews)
  The 1976 Fiesta was an unqualified success from the word go, but it's a sign of how marketing priorities have changed in the subsequent years that it took the company five years before it launched the XR2. Ford had actually dipped its toe in the fast Fiesta water the previous year with the good
• 
  Ford Escort Mk3 (1980 - 1990) (Classics Reviews)
  Following hot on the heels of the Fiesta, Ford’s 1980 Escort, codenamed ‘Erika’ during development, was a front-wheel drive move into the 1980s, banishing the old RWD saloons, and facing the Volkswagen Golf sector with an up-to-the-minute hatchback contender. New CVH
• 
  Ford Capri Mk3 (1978 - 1987) (Classics Reviews)
  The final – and some would say ultimate – Capri arrived in 1977. And with the minimum of effort on Ford’s part, it put right just about all of the Mk2’s flaws. Designated Project Carla, the re-invigorated coupe looked mean and moody, and proved that the Ford
• 
  Ford Granada Mk2 (1977 - 1985) (Classics Reviews)
  The Ford Granada Mk2 became a whole lot more angular at the first major facelift. The new styling, overseen by Filippo Sapino adopted Ford’s new pan-European sharp-suit, and soon spread its way across the entire range. Although it looked like an all-new model, the Mk2 was mainly MkI
• 
  Ford Fiesta Mk1 (1976 - 1983) (Classics Reviews)
  Ford’s arrival in the supermini sector might have been a little late in 1976, following the Fiat 127, Renault 5 and Volkswagen Polo by several years. But Ford took very little time to make up for lost time, with the Fiesta becoming the UK's best-selling supermini in 1978, and a million
• 
  Ford Escort Mk2 (1975 - 1980) (Classics Reviews)
  In the mid-1970s, Ford set about sharpening its act. Not in a marketing sense - because it had been impeccable since at least the end of the 1960s - but visually. Just as the Capri received its straight-edged new styling, so did the Escort, to become the Mk2. Codenamed Brenda during
