Get this:

I tried to get pricing for a new V70T5 manual off three Volvo dealers. NONE even bothered replying. That was the final straw....

As for the Jag thing. It is indeed a Mondeo. However, to say it's similar wouldn't be entirely fair. There are huge differences and reviews are all great up to this point. Having said that, and having seen one, there are parts that still bear the Ford stamp on them. Hidden in normal conditions, but hey - still can be found.

Just bought a Ford Falcon yesterday too as an everyday car. 5.0 V8 manual, 220kW. see www.ford.com.au and look for the Falcon XR8. This is how cars should be: Rear wheel drive and big power.
