Spoke to Ford in Ipswich yesterday and they told me 18,000 miles a year is the most that Ford are willing to allow on a 4 year finance deal. Absolutely gutted. 3 year deal at £830 a month really isn't all that feasible for me. They seemed to suggest that the car wouldn't have enough value after 4 years on that sort of milage.

All this means that I'm holding fire for at least another 4 to 6 months. Hopefully when they start doing PCH and business deals I'll be able to get something sorted through my company

I don't have the millage issue you have but I will certainly be taking mine as a company car. 1% BiK and the company gets the full write down. I see buying it at the end of the term as an advantage as the company will have written it down so it will be a very cheap way to own it after 3 or 4 years.

You might find a 3rd party financer such as Lombard might have better deals. I need to look in to that.

So you take it to a car place each winter to swap over and then swap back in spring? Storage isn't a problem.

yes exactly right... I have a place close by that will swap all 4 for £20 cash... seats down, some bin bags and 40 mins max. If I can be bothered I might do myself. It also keeps the winter muck of the wheels.

An oval batman logo could be stuck over that ford logo, only suitable if you're getting the black model I suspect.

Genius.

Have to laugh that it’s apparently a problem that there’s a Ford logo on a Ford car!?

First world problems right enough....

Because they are marketing it as a mustang, for the same reason as it isnt on the American version.

Models this side if the pond are always different than US models. We have also got AWD on the lifthatch where they haven't.

All of the American videos are ford logo free

The early pre-prods didn’t have the Ford logo granted, but all the latest review cars both USA and European, as well as the most recent pre-prods do have it.

To be honest you don’t really notice it in real life, it’s quite subtle. I didn’t even notice it until it was pointed out to me on my viewing last weekend.

I would’ve thought that anyone who was ashamed to have one Ford logo on their car would probably be best avoiding a Ford Mustang Mach E. ?

I just want to know what I'm buying and without being able to go and look at it in the flesh, trying to piece information together from pictures and videos is the best I can do

I’m sorry but you were absolute that it would not be provided on US cars as no US videos displayed the logo. I showed that where is was possible to see some did infact show it. You responded with early promotIonal shots. I am not saying it is one way or the other I am just disappointed when people will not consider any other possibilities except their own.

It's not a problem, my face will be covered when I drive it! A bag over my head wont be required!

Tell me about it! I’m not going to be able to see it until the 18th February. Even then it depends on what tier we’ll be in by then.

If I don’t get to see it then I will be in tears!?

Don't start a post with "I'm sorry" when you clearly aren't. There are nice and not nice ways tonsay things. Unfortunately, you chose a not nice way to say it. I have gathered most of my information from this thread and from people more knowledgeable than myself. I was only going from what has been said above. This isn't a competition, it is meant to be a thread so we can all stay informed.
Seasons greetings to you.
