Got my 2000 cougar in 2012 with just 32k on the clock, i work in the motor trade and drive all the new cars daily and none of them put a smile on my face like my cougar does, so what it only does around 35mpg but for a v6 and the pleasure it gives, who cares, with its nippy 2.5 v6 170bhp and giving a very nice growl mmmmmmmmmmmmm, drive thru essex with one and you have all the girls stuck to it!!!

to sum up, its a real drivers car, good steering good brakes, beautiful suspension, looks amazing, quick and throaty, everything a car should be!!!

see what happens when other countrys build our cars

This is my third Ford Cougar I started with a 1999 blue 2litre one in 2005 had her 18 months then traded her in for a diesel focus big mistake then in 2010 I got my hands on a 1999 v6 cougar in silver with a dead engine bought an engine but never got round to fitting it as I bought a 2001 v6 Cougar 2 which is a really beautiful car I work in the motor trade so ive had hundreds of cars but this ones stopping with me as I love it so much.

I have my Couger for 5 year now , it has done 150,000 miles and I have never had a single fault.It is a real drivers car , I took mine to a race day against porshes and astins and it done very well.,

to sum up ive had lots of fast cars pass through my thingers but this is one of the greats.

my ford cougar is far the best car i have drvin ive had loads of cars but this is the best loads off space and i do 41 mpg and 55 on moterway runs like a car should and raws as well very stylish car just love it wot more can i say bye one they are worth the money

Bought one year ago and have had endless problems, including suspension, leaking boot and flooded passenger footwell, wheel bearings wearing quickly, parts are expensive and hard to come by (here in Ireland, although not much better in uk either) latest problem was with flywheel - cost '1500 inc labour. So have had to scrap the car as this is about the current price of one that works! When it did work it was comfortable but very bad on fuel, approx 18mpg on average but less when in traffic and when not on the motorway.

general view is that this car is underpowered and unreliable. What do they say... fix or repair daliy! This is true with the cougar! Dont Buy one - you will regret it.

I was looking for a decent kind of motor that fitted my personality and After 3 visits to the same car sales place the big cat tempted me. 24v V6 with a custom chrome rear-split exhaust, it just hooked me in. Just spent £930 getting the front tyres replaced, passenger front-bearing, both front hub/discs and brake pads replaced, 2 bushes, 2 rear brake pads, full service and total check with a blue-fin upgrade for the map. Now she purrs like a dream and with the roar of the K and N air filter and wide bore exhausts she definately turns heads her way. The initial cost was £1500 and to me it is money well spent and she still puts a grin on my face when I see one of those boy racers accelerate up my rear and I just drop her down a gear and let her rip, then grin as I slow it back down to the speed limit and watch as they tootle past with far less intimidation than they just tried. Btw, even with the initial upgrades she sits at 22 mpg around town taking it steady, and 36-42 mpg on motorways with feather-footing the accelerator. And then, as with all cats, the cougar will perform but get thirsty- dropping the mpg to an insane 5 mpg gunning it full bore!!!

Truly amazing car for the money. Bought last November for £2150. 2 owner, 43,594 miles with full history. It's a beautiful, roomy, GT cruiser that eats tarmac with consumate ease. I love driving on long open roads and just driving and driving and driving...! Around town there's nothing better than a summer's day with the windows down, rock n roll blaring from the cd player and just cruising through the traffic to your destination. And of course all of this with a wide appreciative grin. The roar of that glorious V6 as you accelerate on an open road says Bullitt! In 36 years this is my 25th vehicle. I wasn't a Ford nut, in fact I was a BIG Toyota fan (including the very first MR2 registered on the whole island of Ireland!) but I have to say I cannot sing its praises enough. This a complete indulgence for me after years of having to make choices based on a growng family. It's a coupe, not a family run about. So I can't get a crowd in the rear bucket seats - so what? It's a coupe! I regard ALL coupes as two plus two. Acres of room and comfort up front and some space for the occasional passenger in the back. The toys are brill, the boot enormous, the pilarless doors a dream! Any Drawbacks? Being a MK1 Cougar the sunroof no longer works. So what? Who needs it? Is the climate controlled aircon not good enough for you? When I die my son will have to get Chip Foose from "Overhaulin" to make over my beautiful ebony black 2.5l V6 24valve Ford Cougar. I'll NEVER get rid of this black cat. If you want a car that brings a smile to your face EVERY time you see it never mind drive it; if you want a bomb proof V6 with lots of torque and an engine roar that sends shivers up your spine; if you want a car that any mechanic worth his salt can work on, then forget the snobbery of other brands like BMW, Alfa Romeo, etc.. Stick with the good old blue collar brand. It has no airs or graces. It knows it's not a fancy German or Italian. But it also knows it delivers exactly what it promises, and then some. They're as cheap as chips so why not get the real deal V6 instead of the more mundane 2.0l? In the case of my personal steed every time I lay eyes on it I recall old Henry's infamous remark, " You can have any colour as long as it's black!" Without doubt my ebony black V6 Cougar is the BEST car I've EVER owned! Get out there and get one! NOW!

bought a cougar after being very impressed with a st 24 ,only the cougar was far slower,it turned out to be imrc module not working and only running on 12 valves.i have since fitted a st 200 upper manifold/throttle body and air box but doesnt feel like 200 bhp,next is exhaust.brakes seem very weak and mirrors are poor,cant get any more than 28 mpg driving like a nun.but its a great car just wish it went like the old tatty battered mondeo.

Had my v6 xpack since 2002 got with 43000 miles on now has 122000 miles on and i still love driving it. Have serviced it myself with regular 10000 mile oil and filter change, and its never failed, Changed both track control arms recently for mot. Iam going to keep it for ever motorway cruising is an absolute pleasure, runs bang straight, can get 45mpg at 60mph.
