Not driven one but they are rated highly.

I hired a Quasqui (!) the other day that was utter pants -I'm thinking the Kuga is a similar concept but properly executed.

My sister has one - great car.

She's got the TDCI version (2L) Zetec.
Got a parrot Bluetooth gadget too.

Very nice indeed.

We have the Galaxy with that engine in, even in a lump like that it moves well, Kuga looks pretty food as soft roaders go, dont think you can go far wrong.

Ford really do make some good cars nowadays.

Two of my friends have TDCI versions and can't rate them highly enough. They also do a 2wd version now.

Mate has one. Rates it very well. Was either going to be the Kuga or a Tiguan. Ford did the better deal, so he got the Ford.

All sounding good so far, just should I be patient and wait a year for prices to come down more?

thse cars look wicked with the body kits on, saw one at trax last year.

we have sat in one and its much like a new focus in a 4x4 sit up high style of car.

still nice, but not sure they are worth £25k

Exceptionally good deal with a privelage ticket.....and you dont need to work for Ford either, Jaguar/Landrover will do.

£15,995 FOR TDcI model.

Nice drive, tacky dash and poor vis from the B pillar back.

Now then, where did my Brother in Law, the OP go?

Had a look when they came out as they are rather nice to look at. Was very disappointed with trim quality though, although i admit i've never had a Ford so can't comment if that is the same for all fords.
