Which automatic retro car?

not bad for mk2 Mondeo underpinnings.

S-Type had nothing to do with Mondeo underpinnings what-so-ever. Points are available for what cars it did share some aspects with (no points if you have to google/wiki).

It was still Ford and still a wee bit naff.

Weird, because I also was under the impression it was on the Mondeo platform!

Bloody nice cars they were, I toured West Scotland in one, camping. It made a nice noise and handled fine. Lovely armchair like comfort.

Re:

Ford stuff was limited to the Engine/Gearbox combos, the 2.5V6 and 3.0V6 were both available in the Mondeo along with the Manual gearbox. Have quite fancied the S Type-R myself, 400bhp and a SC V8 sounds like fun.
The X-Type on the other hand was like a Mondeo in a dress.

I did hear Jag's rust for fun and a friends S-Type 2.5 had rusty arches. I can't believe that cars that are premium brands rust so badly. Merc's of a similar age are just as bad is seems.
