New Ford Edge - Launch Review 18 Jul 2016
New Ford Edge arrives in Ireland - just in time for 162!
Ford has officially launched the new Ford Edge to the Irish market. This SUV is in direct competition with the likes of the Land Rover Discovery Sport and the Volvo XC60. However, with a starting point of €55,700 we wonder whether Ford are doing enough of their "Unlearn" marketing.…

New Ford Mondeo - Driven 18 May 2015
The new Ford Mondeo 1.6 TDCi Zetec driven
It may have taken a bit longer than expected but the new Ford Mondeo is finally here. In fact, it arrived here toward the end of 2014 when we got the chance to jump behind the wheel for the first time at its Irish launch last October. But now we’ve finally got the chance…

Ford Galaxy Review 31 Jan 2015
An exceptional MPV - the Ford Galaxy
Our family car is a seven-seat Renault Grand Scenic. It’s not new. We bought it second hand about a year ago, so the licence plate says 07 D on it. Honestly, before I had children I wouldn’t have ever considered buying such a vehicle. Firstly, why would I need such a…

Ford B-Max 28 Sep 2014
The usefulness of the B-Max really surprises
I really like it when I pick up a test drive that surprises me. If I’m being honest I wasn’t overly excited by the fact that I was about to pick up a Ford B-Max for test drive, but as I do with all test drives I sit into the vehicle with a completely open mind. Immediately…

Ford Ka Review 22 Aug 2014
This week we look at one of Ford's smaller cars - the Ka.
I was arranging my test drives recently enough and I figured maybe it’s time I start looking at really small cars. There are many good points to be made about smaller vehicles. For example, because they’re small they're usually more affordable. Secondly, on account of…

Ford Kuga 04 Feb 2014
This week we are looking at the New Ford Kuga
There’s a lot to like about Ford. Recently enough I have had some exceptional cars from them in the Focus ST and the Fiesta ST especially. Their non-ST cars are impressive too. The current Fiesta for example is very good and their use of EcoBoost technology is really fantastic.…

Ford Fiesta ST 16 Jan 2014
The Fiesta ST certainly doesn't disappoint
When I attend launches etc. and have an opportunity to speak to other motor journalists inevitably we end up talking about other cars and test drives we’ve really enjoyed. One car which has been mentioned by many hacks at said launches has been the Ford Fiesta ST and for this…

Ford Focus ST 06 Nov 2013
Our latest new car review: Ford Focus ST
This month saw a few firsts for me. One such first was the fact that I got to test drive the latest Ford Focus ST. Unfortunately I never drove the previous model but as a big car fan I read a lot about it and have had the pleasure of being a passenger on more than one occasion, other…

Ford Fiesta 05 Nov 2013
This week we look at the 1 litre EcoBoost Fiesta from Ford
Over the years I’ve visited and revisited the Ford Fiesta in various guises. My uncle had one in the early eighties, friends of the family the same, old next-door neighbours, and even when I first met my now wife, she had one too. I have to admit I was never really a fan. Even…
