S650 UK orders

[NicoMCH]

Are any of you having an issue with the "keep your hands on the steering wheel" alert. Mine seems to come on every 5 minutes despite me having my bloody hands on the wheel!!!!

Did 1600 km since I got the DH 2 weeks ago. 2 trips of 650km each on highway mostly, first trip the message was coming very often , second time back nearly never and I was using the lane assist feature. I have the impression it checks if you are moving the steering wheel just the slightest. Probably way to sensitive, it seems it is a known issue on several Ford models.

I'm enjoying my Mustang so much, I thought I'd order a second for my daughter...

Panel fit on that door looks a bit off...

The UK configurator now (finally) has the MY25 specifications, in case anyone wants to have a nose around.

Thanks for this.
I looked through but other than the colour shown on the car itself ( black callipers ) does anyone know what the brake calliper colour is as standard ?
Previously Grabber blue seemed to be the standard on the DH but I thought I had seen something from the US that said now Red ?

I see somebody posted about a UK hold on deliveries because of the screen issues elsewhere on this forum? Any more information ?

 

[SweptVolume]

No more info, but at least one dealer is using mention of a "stop hold" in their Autotrader advert

For anyone interested, the part number for the bottom lip of the Dark Horse front bumper is PR3Z-17D957-BA (European Part Number 2602922) and it costs £267 from a Ford dealer.

I'll stick to reverse parking from now on!

When they said the dark horse was a sell out success and sold out in days, they really meant it was a scalpers dream.
That or dealers buying up the allocation for stock.
There are currently 32 brand new dark horses for sale on autotrader, majority of them in dealer stock.
That's over half the My24 batch unsold and they're not all here yet.
Most of them for £5k over original order price.

My dealer even has two out of their eight cars allocated on the lot listed for sale, one of them is Stegefal's / my original spec order.

It wont be long before they start to discount them to get them shifted before the april tax doubling.

Yes there do seem to be a lot of Mustangs arriving now and they don't seem to be selling very fast. There seems little point in them building any 2025 model year cars for us.

Ford would do well to convince its credit arm to slash rates for finance on the Mustang. It's not a cheap car and if they could make finance work at 5% instead of over 10%, I'm sure they'd move a few more.

Is there anyone on this forum still waiting for their car to arrive?

Was told on Friday that my DH now has a build date of late March.

Why not just choose the same spec from the cars due into the UK soon. Dealers can request cars from the list here.

Compare Fords and see which models we have in stock | Ford UK

Or check dealer stock elsewhere, I'm sure there are deals to be had now.

New & Used Cars for Sale - Auto Trader UK

A March build will mean you will not get it until mid summer.
