I know there's not many of you out there at the moment, but I wondered for the few that are. Is there anything you would change on you Kuga. Or is there an add on you wish you had ordered when you purchased them?
Dave
Hmmmm...had it for 2 days now and its as good as expected. I would like to see a foot rest for my left foot and running boards would be handy for my little ones
...will also add that the reflection from the dashboard is visible on the windscreen most of the time. The lighter, ripple effect, plastic near the windscreen is the culprit as the black, soft to the touch, material doesn't reflect. I am not bothered as I have been driving a Citroen Picasso for the past 3 years (anything is an improvement from that!) but it may distract some.
not too keen on the orange inserts on my kuga but hey the overall car is spot on - there isnt anything i would change... okay i'd put a 4.0l supercharged engine in it, but then i wouldnt be able to afford to run the thing
its a cool car straight out of the box!
Dave your question will only obtainpersonal view points... the only thing you need to do is go drive one and make your own mind up...
yesterday i drive a volvo xc90, LR Disco 3, the freelander and Rav4 - i was glad to get back into my kuga... while all those cars offer different things i found myself picking holesin cars that were nearly double the cost of the kuga - its a good all round package for the money!
Done that at the end of May after many months reading up on it, and now waiting to finalise the paperwork. They had a couple at the showroom, but not the colour or spec I wanted. Been waiting and waiting and waiting seems like for ever (3 and a half weeks). So keeping busy reading other people's thoughts, comments and recommendations. I was worried about the dpf mod for a while, with the news coming out the weekend I had put the deposit down. But it seems that's not such a big issue now with it just being a small mod. I've cleared room in my garage and gave that a tidy, purchased some wax and other newcleaning stuff. Cut back the neighbours overhanging trees of the drive hehehe. Perhaps I should go and have another test drive to ease the pain.
Cheers
wish the 12v socket was inside the armrest rather than outside as ipod cables/belkin charger are seen.
will know more tomorrow as I have a couple of hundred miles to drive, but first impressions are good - just need to forget that I bought it a month ago and it has sat in the dealers....
Yes that would be so much better.... was thinking its a shame that for charging Ipod when its plugged into aux imput that its charger will be outside box.
If I had the money I would have gone for the glass roof.... but alas here in Ireland it was an additional ‚¬1500..
.... My Mini cooper had a double sunroof and I loved it.... and my sister currently loves it as she bought my Mini....
I only have 78 kilometers on the clock since collecting yesterday at 5pm... But I am pleasntly supprised by the power.. I had test drove a VW Golf 1.9tdi and was going to buy when I saw the Kuga advert 3 weeks ago and wanted one of those instead..... The VW was 105bhp and the Kuga is 136bhp, but I was expecting the kuga to be similar to power to the golf due to size difference.... but **** no.... I'm looking forward to the weekend & having some fun driving about in it.... I'll see then if there is anything i'd like to change in it
Get the imperial units back on if thats what you want, then exit from the setup menu.... scroll round till the external temp is shown on the screen... then hold in the 'reset' button - this will change the temp from deg C to deg F.... obviously you can go back to deg F as and when required...
been keeping an eye on this forum since the adverts started appearing on the TV.
Test drove a Titanium two weeks ago, just happened to wander into another dealer last weekend which were discounting the showroom Kuga to get their figures in for the end of month. So managed to get a Zetec with just over £1500 off the list price together with Bluetooth and voive control. Dealer has also promised to fit roofbars FOC for me at a later date (when I can afford them).
Picked it up yesterday and only done about20 miles so far, but everythin
g is A OK so far, going to a scout camp tonight so will get to try out the AWD down the extremely 'off road' entry lane.
Glad someone has asked about the temp gauge, have not had chance to try change anything yet on the computer, but certainly will be trying this out soon.
Am now at 550 Miles and so far I am still very happy with it. Only thing I would change is for the roof rails to be standard as you have to have roof rails to use Roof Bars / Box and it is consting me a small fortune to have them retrofitted next week.
As regards whatI would change....for those of us that do not have sat nav built in ..... I would put a 12 volt socket on the right of the the car so that chargers can be plugged in without the lead impeading on the gear stick.....your thoughts on that one....seem all manufacturers want to put the socket in the middle.
My sentiment exactly......i just wonder if any of the designers have ever driven a car at all....wife says that if a woman had designed it ...it would have had one.......yes along with a hair drier a & lipstick holder..
I dont know if this has been discussed or maybe I've asked the question before, but on the eve of my Bi-annual moan, does Sync 3 adjust to daylight saving the like Sync 2, in that you have flipping adjust it yourself.
The SatNav cant even adjust to satellite time correctly on the MK2 never mind...
Hi
Could anyone advise which would be the best engine oil to use, as the manufacturer manual just says WSS-M2C913-C.
I have searched online and it brings up 3 options, which are: Ford 5W-30 Formula F, Castrol Magnatec Stop-Start 5W-30 A5 4L and Mobil Super 3000 X1 Formula FE 5W-30 Oil 5L.
I...
hello I have a Ford kuga which won’t start all the time.. sometimes when I get in the car it will not turn the engine over however when I walk away from the car and come back it will then start. Any ideas why this would be happening?
Hi all,
I've Had a Mk2 Kuga for 3 years now and now traded in for a spanking new ST-Line X Chrome Blue
Dealer said delivery estimate is end of july as they have none in stock (5 months!!). Could this be true?
He did mention he had a few in stock but not in the colour we wanted. Could he be...
