Asking owners opinion on any car especially on a enthusiasts site like this is also unwise. Research shows that we all (me included) generally have cognitive dissonance with respect to our car purchases and usually won't recognise or admit to any shortcomings; nobody likes to think they made a bad purchase decision or their new car is not as good as they thought. This is actually a good thing as it helps people avoid depression. I don't know how the Dog & Lemon Guide rate the Mondeo but you'll get an objective rating from their reviews.
