Mondeo underpinnings might sound 'cheap' but the Mondeo was a smart steer in the first place; giving it 4WD and real power was never going to be a recipe for disaster, was it?

EVO tested it against the Mondeo - 2.5s in both

Alas I know nowt of newt, but of X-Types I've heard on here that rusty sills are not unheard of which seems to doom them.

Oh is that a standard thing across the range? Mine started life as a demo car so I just assumed they had blinged her up...

Btw I refer to the Jag as The Big Green Monster in homage to a certain Aston...

Can't tell if you're taking the piss or not about now knowing I had a 330 ragtop (there's a thread about it), but I do need to clean the hood up properly, it's manky as fuck and could do with some hydrophobics applied to it.
