Totally agree with these comments. My insurance company provided a Hertz rental after my Mondeo was involved in a crash. For a 1.4 turbo, they go really well. The seven speed auto was perfectly matched. On a country trip, I was getting flat 5's per 100. Was surprised to see features like adaptive cruise included. And the sound system... felt like the Mondeo had no treble or bass when I got back in it. Most of the under bonnet items were tagged VW & Audi.
They are basically a Czechoslovakian built VW. Would totally recommend, but for the first 100,000 k's only.
