I love the cougar!!! I've got just over 9k more miles to do on my company car and it's def what I'm having next!

2.5 V6 is the only real option, I've tried the 2.0l and it's just not powerful enough. Unfortunately even the V6 is only 173bhp as standard but it's v simple to get 200 without too much trouble and the handle and ride is top quality + u get bags f torque

Don't go for the 2.0 - it's pants, the Duratec V6 is the one to have and if you can get one get the x-pack version as well as it's fully loaded Great cars, very torquey and long legged
