In the US it was sold as the Ford Contour. It was a dreadful car. Unattractive by American standards and significantly more expensive than the Ford Tempo it replaced. The rental car interior and mediocre driving dynamics didn’t help matters. Long term reliability must have been poor because I haven’t seen one on the road in many years.

Most new cars use a few smoke and mirrors in order to improve those numbers - a clever four wheel drive system and a fast 8 speed transmission more than make up for the extra weight. The thing is, with the electric steering etc…these new cars are quite soulless in comparison. I would take a tuned sapphire Cosworth over a new M3 or AMG any day. I was taken out in a new CLA 45 AMG S not so long ago….it was stupidly fast, but I wasn’t that impressed.
