Thumbs up Ford Mondeo XR5 Turbo Spy Shots

Please feel free to kick me if this has already been posted somewhere... i can't spot it.

http://www.caradvice.com.au/6520/for...rbo-spy-shots/

Will have to see what comes of it, i think it's very promising although it may be slightly confusing for the average punter with the focus xr5t and mondeo xr5t... bah, no biggie and sticks to the XR moniker.

Cheers,
Miyagi

Maybe its not cladded because they arn't spy shots? The T5 powered mondeo is common overseas

I have seen many badge Mondeo XR5 Turbo's around my work (work next door to ford) They have given out 25 Mondeo's to employees for the pre-launch drive.

I've been in an Mondeo XR5 and its a fantastic car, spec'd very well and silky smooth to drive. Its a hell of a lot bigger then i expected and the boot space is enormous. For those who are concerned about the rear pipes, dont worry as they will be changed for australia to point straight out like a focus xr5.
