i never buy ford yuk

they don't make much now that I'd want to buy, but they've been at the fore front of bringing technology to the masses over the years ...anti-slam doors, ABS as standard in a mass produced car ie Granada Scorpio
  vauxhall carlton beat ford to the abs thing across the range

Not to mention heated front screens(in the Escort!); something every car should have. Granada/Scorpio is a damn good car even with the rather poor 12v engines and chocolate autobox.

Becming more standard now... but if memory serves, ford held the patent on that one up until recently so nobody could use it[/quote

ford did not hold the patent on heated front screens and they werent the first to offer it on a prodution vehicle,saab and volvo have used heated front screens on there home market vehicles for some years be for ford started.

Nice car. Are the LEDs an add on or are they std? Had one till 2 months ago and that did not have DRLs. One of the very early models with Lux pack 2.
Sold it because I hated the bone jarring ride quality. Fine as a weekend car, terrible as a daily driver, which is what I was using it as. Also for the price the interior was quite poor, the seats bolsters would crash against your legs and hurt every time you tried climbing in or our of the car. And Ford service was the worst I have ever experienced in my life. I did however love the noise it made and the acceleration. I dont think any Omega could keep up with it.
