Bad Points: In this new Eco era the mpg can really sting you for short journeys.
General comments: Internal size excellent. Boot space can be enormous. Ride is excellent. It is an American grand tourer front seating is superb, rear is better than an Audi TT. If Ford had produced a mkII I'd have one.
Mine is V reg & we bought it before it was 12 months old from Fords of Winsford. It is the X pack and being a second car has only done 32k. I keep looking for a possible replacement and its generally a desert out there.

I bought my 99 Ford Cougar last month and have loved driving it, I would say that they make good value for money and do reasonable mpg. My last car was a Mondeo so I am familiar with Ford. My Mondeo was the most relieble car I ever owned 181k and I hope to get the same from my cougar. I have only owned it a short time but am pleased none the less.

I've had the Ford Cougar for 18 months and joining the Cougar Owners Club has given acess to everything that you could possibly want to know to keep the car in tip top condition. I've a minor "glitch" where the speedo needle "wanders around the dial" from time to time but otherwise this is the best car that I've owned for many years. Mines done 75K miles on a T plate. I'm looking for a younger one with a Sun Roof and Rear Parking Sensors.

Owned the Ford Cougar V6 for almost a year now and it has proved to be an extremely reliable car at the same time as being one of the most enjoyable I have ever driven.

Had a year now, good response from the 2.5 v6, torque is fantastic you can cruise at 15mph in 5th and still pull away, 0-60 just over 7 secs. Only prob you get is a noise in cold weather for the first few minutes when you let the revs drop to tic over, this is known as "moosing" but it doesn't damage the car, it is the IAC (Idle Air Controller) valve. Go for the X-pack, I have slightly modded mine, uprated sports brakes, got rid of the 2ft long aerial for a silver stubby 1, and added a little BM ...

Only had this a little while and absolutely love it. Wasn't looking for one and nearly brought a BMW318IS coupe. Even made an offer and walked away waiting for a call. Then spotted the Cougar in a local garage really cheap. Phoned a mate whose a car fanatic and he convinced me over the phone. I'm not really a car nut, but this thing has turned me on. Took it for a drive and was blown away with everything about it. Read a lot of reviews and can't find too much negative said about the V6 2.5L x-pa ...

I have had my Ford cougar V6 24v 1 year only. I was put off by some quotes for tyres but I have just put two 205 55 / r16 tyres on the same axle which cost 45 quid each instead of 75 quid plus, which I had been offered before

I did have a V6 Mondeo Ghia X before it went bang (Head Gasket), so I knew what the V6 would be like. My Cougar is an Auto so very smooth with the V6 and really nice to drive. I like the looks, it means you can have a family size car that is a bit different. The boot is huge, more so with the rear seats down.
The auto has an overdrive box and 70 MPH is only 2,500 RPM, so it is really only just ticking over, and accelerates well at any speed due to the excellent torque of the engine. You can t ...

For a dated car the Ford Cougar V6 24v can still get away with it. I've had my 2.5 for just over a year now and continue to enjoy the car. I like to think of it as a powerful cruiser with something under the bonnet when you need it. Likes a drink but what do you expect from a V6. Overall, a lovely motor which has been sadly overlooked. Cougar owners can relate I'm sure...............

Nice car for the money paid. Very practical and reliant, but don't let dealers/owners deceive you into thinking this car is economical - this car likes to drink petrol and will keep you poor. This car is also rare, so rare to me equals rare parts, even though other parts will be cheap, and finally this is the car your dad really wants - this car turns heads.

The Ford Cougar V6 24v is OK for a family man, or someone who is thinking in terms of becoming Captain Sensible, but I am used to Mazda MX6 Celica etc. and this car for performance came nowhere near, despite the 2.5 V6 engine.

Love my Ford Cougar V6 24v totally except not knowing whether they have a problem with their water pumps or coolant leaks. Other that this little problem, every thing is fantastic. Looks, handling, comfort, fuel economy as I do about 50,000kms per year. Love my car!

I normally change my cars every year or so but so far there has been no other car that has attracted me. My Ford Cougar V6 still looks immaculate - Great seating postiion - Huge boot - Fully loaded Insurance £390 pa MOT & Service £150 pa. Where can I get low cost decent tyres?

I have had my Ford Cougar V6 for 8 months now. I must say I am very pleased with it. Sounds absolutely brilliant, always turns heads at traffic lights! A lovely fast car, and isn't bad at drinking petrol.

I've had my Ford Cougar for about 6 months and absolutely love it. If you're looking to race every car on the road then this isn't the car for you - buy an RS. This is a luxury car that has enough power to enjoy the roads with (0-60 in about 8sec - top speed 140+ mph). These cars are very good and cheap second hand cars that are usually well looked after. the V6 is the one to have out of the two engine types. Without listing every single aspect of the Cougar its hard to get a feel for how good t ...

I Have only had my Ford Cougar for one month, and I have done over a 1000 miles. It's a dream to drive.
My brother had one and I always wanted one. It's a real good second hand car to buy for all the extras you get, and the looks too! The consumption is not bad either, for a car of its size.
A lot of people would complain about the size of the back seats, but who buys a car like this and cares about the back seats? I will never be in the back of mine that's for sure!
Leather seats, Air condit ...
