Ford's stand was dominated by four models: the Flex, a slammed, seven-seat SUV with Range Rover-styling cues; the iconic F-150 pick up; the Focus; and, of course, the Mustang. With an ear-splitting V8 roar, Ford unveiled a 50-edition run of the Cobra Jet Mustang, and the F-150 SVT Raptor, a go-anywhere extreme version of the pick-up, which will bounce across sand ...

Ford Ka at the Paris motor show 2008

Rated 3 out of 5

Gavin Green, 02 October 2008 10:26

Ford’s latest Ka – high style meets low cost – makes its bow at the Paris show. It’s a funky little thing based on the Fiat 500/Panda, and built in the same Polish factory. It dials up driving brio and youthful appeal compared with the industrial Panda and the mature chic of the 500 and will likely follow its successful ...

Rated 3.5 out of 5

Ben Pulman and Ben Barry, 01 August 2008 00:01

Ford’s Ka – the cheeky, lovable and classless city car – is back. Still called Ka, the new model will make its show debut at Paris in autumn 2008, before going on sale in the UK by the end of the year. The underpinnings are, of course, from the Fiat 500, but Blue Oval engineers have tweaked the chassis to give ...

Rated 2.5 out of 5

Anonymous, 29 July 2008 09:00

The Blue Oval might be more at home building Escorts and Mondeos, but it too has dabbled in the superecar arena in the past four decades.

Ben Barry and CAR reader reporter Jacomoseven, 23 July 2008 12:27

Ford's stand is one of the undisputed highlights at this year's London motor show, with something for visitors of all persuasions. Like hot hatches? They don't come much hotter than the new Focus RS, a 296bhp rocket that looks set to rip up the hot hatch rulebook. Prefer your cars to be more parsimonious? Then the Fiesta Econetic manages a ...
