I have never owned a leather cod piece but I do have a preference for blondes lol.
Very funny but informative, ausies always have good way of explaining things for the average Joe to understand.

My last car was the Kuga 2L Titanium X and I must say I couldn't fault it.
Was comfortable, drove very well, even on the autobahn at warp speed!
Really easy to get in and out of as well as the seat is at just the right
height. Important for us oldies
I've now got a new S Max which I do prefer but its a close run thing.

S max is ok but dont like the styling.

Well I've been and gone and and dunnit ! Ordered my new Kuga on Friday and found one of exact spec that I want and colour that had just left the factory unclaimed for Belgium export storage.
Its now on its way here so should take delivery towards end of October.

did you stick with the Titanium spec then, or opt for a Vignale?

Tit spec with 17" wheels standard tyres, and roof rails and privacy glass thrown in the deal

 

[turbopete]

very nice, although I thought roof rails and privacy glass were standard on the titanium? I cant even remember what size wheels are on dads, ive only seen it a handful of times

edit. roof rails and privacy glass are in the appearance pack. ive a funny feeling 17 inch wheels could be standard. theyre not listed as options on the configurator. that said, neither is the 150bhp 2.0 diesel with powershift transmission, only the 180 is listed now. very nice either way!!

 

[Quick Silver]

Yes 17" are

17" are standard but glass and roof rails are appearance package.
Probably never use the rails but makes it look better.

 

[turbopete]

personally I'm not sure the rails would be used much by ANYONE but have to admit they do finish the look off nicely. as for the privacy glass, I think it should be standard o ALL cars.

You'll need the rails for your surfboard, when your new car gives you a new lease on life.

Me in a wet suit is not a good look trust me.

Probably a better look than lycra.

Enjoy the new car

The boot on the Kuga is fairly small especially for all the rubbish we fill it up with when going on hols so the roof
rails were really useful for mounting the roof box. Dont need it now as the boot on the Smax is huge!

Looking forward to having something different.

We drove all of those and went for the Hyundai Tucson in the end.

On the comments of the Kia Sportage and parts, there won't be issues there, the car is sold globally in lots of numbers. Same with the Tucson and they have longer warranties than the likes of Ford too.

Ours is the 1.7 CRDi and it has more than enough go. We did look at the 2.0 4WD auto, but really didn't need 4WD so the 1.7 being more economical as well is fine.
