Ford Kuga 2009

4 star review

 

I have wanted the Kuga for some time now and have just part ex’d my Mondeo for the Kuga 4X4 variant. It is a fantastic car to drive and you don’t realise that it has the 4X4 capability. There are a few minor niggles which are as follows: The water washer is drained very quickly, taking into account that the head lights are washed when you function. Second is why did Ford not indicate that the vehicle is a 4X4 on the rear of the Car? I hope that it proves its worth during the winter period, particularly in snow fall.

Ford Kuga 2009

4 star review

We too are very happy with the new Kuga, although we have had 2 Nissan X Trails which served us well, however, I do like Fords and this model does turn heads. Our economy is fair 38/40mpg but I expect it to get better. I have 3 little niggles: water drips onto rear seats when doors are opened in rain; a little more boot space would have been handy; I am not a lover of ’skinny wheels’ either and a spare wheel bay big enough for the nice alloys would of been better. We find it lovely to drive, visability good, comfort good, quietness, smoothness and responsiveness are all very good. I know we had a few extra packages on the Kuga we ordered but a sliding sunroof would of been nice too. I only hope the AWD lives up to its expectations in the snow too. I don’t like to nit pick but I would have of preferred to see the Model identification on the rear of the boot too. All in all we are very happy with the Kuga and its quality for the price we paid.

Ford Kuga 2009

5 star review

Superb handling... excellent fuel figures... seating and trim first class finish. All-around vision excellent. In fact, I am very pleased with the whole package... only one minus... After spending 25,000 + I did expect to have a cable to handle my grand-children’s iPod... any suggestions?

Ford Kuga 2.0Diesel Titanium 2WD 2009

5 star review

I have now had my Kuga for 4 months and I am really pleased with it. The handling is great and the power seems plenty for the driving I do, which is mostly motorway. It is comfortable and the build quality seems very good. I opted for the titanium model because of the better trim level and the added extras including the DAB radio which is fabulous. It has even held its price over the first six months. Only criticism is that the marketing material says up to 54.6mpg and I am averaging 38/39 and I am not a particularly hard driver.
