Also glad to hear someone else thinks the mondeo is a good handling machine. A little battle sprung out between myself and a few falcon fans about what car was better in the twisties. Having driven both its my belief the mondeo is far better in its chassis, feels very planted.

The titanium is certainly a good kit, makes me think sometimes to change from the XR5 mondeo to a titanium diesel...

Thanks guys.

I have to agree I think Mondeo has the edge. Better turn in and the benefit of firmer suspension and sharper steering. It feels lighter too.

Driving the XR6T always felt like a pendulum. I remember it was either over or understeer but always with a big dose of power. It handled INCREDIBLY well the FG, really amazing for its size. I'm yet to give the Mondeo a decent drive but around the city my Mondeo is a revelation.
