I used to have an E60 M5 (the one with the bigger brother S85 V10) that's much closer in terms of size / power / weight etc to the S650 (even had adaptive dampers). As well it had a 500hp 5L engine just with a V10 instead of V8 and in America you could get it with a 6 speed manual, europe was...
In the UK that's being covered by brands such as BYD and MG.
The formers sales were up nearly 500% in 2025 (up 40k+ sales) and nearly half that of Fords since entering the market 2 years ago. More strong growth in 2026 and they'll surpass ford. They've already overtaken Tesla here.
Ford on the...
Ford has been showing signs of pulling out of UK / Europe for some time now. They've axed the best selling car (fiesta) and pretty much finished off the next best seller (focus) and have left themselves with vehicles people aren't interested in (Capri/explorer/ranger) the best selling vehicles...
Each are the right size for their home market. But market demands vary.
And yes climate demands will override auto stop start and since ford don't use twin batteries on the mustang electrical demands will override it too.
Export DH's do have it for the developed world markets.
The price of vehicles and annual taxation rates are determined by the homologated emissions, which are baseline checked during inspections.
Self reporting by the vehicle and random sample testing in the field using RDE2.
Under RDE2 the...
I prefer being able to see where i'm going and for ya know lights to be functional.
To those commenting about the ride height, it's on air suspension so it's on the parked / slammed mode, it will lift up for actual driving else it would get stuck on a pebble.
There is a built in timer regardless of the SOC that will disconnect remote services, i think it's two weeks of no vehicle entry though.
But as others have said it's under warranty anything that a new battery will fix is Fords problem.
Everything else is an operating issue.
They will do a SOH...
Still wildly inconsistent between runs, unless they decided reving a coyote beyond 8k was a bad idea.
Would be interesting to see the valve closing velocity on a GT vs DH vs that modified cam.
Seems to me like ford were cam'd the DH to rev higher than a GT but ran into issues late in the game...
The question was more how did they rev it that high when the factory hard cut is 7.5k and soft cut 7.25k
Smells like they're fiddling with the dyno ratio if they're using implied crank speed from wheel speed.
They've already said several times that doesn't work as turning it off puts a light on the switch. No light no turning off.
Good to see the world is still going backwards
Yup same was dated 25th.
Recall was performed on the 24th, Dealer have confirmed they submitted the paperwork to Ford on the 24th. But Ford can take upto a month to process this as it's not digital / automated as such.
Just made me laugh really.
In something you really cant make up...
I got a letter today from Ford, about an urgent recall on my car that i must contact my dealer ...
Letter dated ONE day after my dealer had performed the recall. Can only imagine someone ticked the wrong box somewhere!
A few points / comments from the OP.
This thread is posted in the UK section, whilst everyone is of course welcome the primary audience for the information is UK owners as it's most relevant to them.
- The observation started with an automatic focus (so it has lane centring assist, which my...
I'm not sure if the following is a result of a recent software update, a change in the road / conditions or the fact I usually turn lka off as part of the start up routine.
However everyone should be aware of the following and turn lka off when not driving on motorways or dual carriageway...
I think they measured the wrong calliper, printed report is quite different to digital report.
Recall went ok seems it's more preventative these days than just a straight up inspection.
Ford estimated it would take them 1 hour (the inspection part) the full job took them just over 3 hours...
