@NZ XR6: Although you and I both have Mondeo wagons and like them, I heard that wagons only make up about 10% of sales of model types compaired to the hatch or sedan variations. So I dont think it would have improved Mondeo sales much if they brought the wagon out earlier.
The press has been good to Mondeo in Oz and its also won top awards too. So the blaim I see comes down to bad advertising from the start, availability and also the Mondeo being a bit too close to the Falcon. Remember that the Mondeo is Europes big family car, where as in Oz its classified a medium. I think Mondeo has suffered in finding a market.
