The Mondeo Titanium X is a car with the perfect heart in the perfect body. It offers a supreme drive, excellent safety record and solid engineering. It offers a choice of engines, including one of the most powerful 4-cylinder diesel engines in its class - the Duratorq TDCi 155 PS. The car has a commanding driving position, which allows a similarly confident road present. Handling is confident with a sporty edge, the ride is just right - firm, but gentle, so this Mondeo pleases drivers and passengers alike. Pulling onto motorways or overtaking on B-roads, a firm press of the TDCis throttle results in a sensation like the car has been kicked in the rear by a giant. With the X model, you get 18-inch alloys, alcantara and leather trim, climate seats (which can heat or cool your rear end), a Bluetooth voice-control system for your phone and the ESP electronic stability control programme as standard. The fuel consumption is good; you should be able to average around 46mpg. With a good load area and plenty of room for large or awkwardly shaped objects, it is easy to access, too, with a wide tailgate opening and a low lip. It really has got the lot.
