Ford Mustang (2014-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Fabulous old-school V8 of GT models	High running costs
Charismatic looks and driving experience	Mustangs with the four-cylinder engine have less character
Bullitt edition is sharp to drive	Cramped rear seats

Quick Summary

The Ford Mustang (2014-present) is an iconic American muscle car that was the first to be officially available in the UK. This sixth-generation model combines retro styling inspired by the 1964 original with modern engineering, featuring a sophisticated multi-link rear suspension that makes it more suitable for British roads than previous versions. The Mk6 Mustang offers exceptional value for money, with a choice of a thunderous 5.0-litre V8 engine producing over 400bhp or a more efficient turbocharged 2.3-litre EcoBoost four-cylinder. The 2018 facelift brought a more powerful V8 (443bhp), an improved SYNC3 infotainment system, and a modern 10-speed automatic gearbox.

Whilst the Mustang is a big car measuring nearly 4.8 metres long, it offers surprisingly practical features including a 408-litre boot on Fastback models, an electrically-powered convertible roof, and standard parking sensors with reversing camera. However, rear seat space is cramped, making it suitable only for children or short journeys for adults. Running costs are significant, particularly for V8 models which achieve around 20mpg in realistic driving. The car oozes charisma and delivers an entertaining driving experience, though it handles more like an old-school bruiser than a precision European sports car. Service costs are reasonable, and the Mustang is a simple, durable machine built to last.

Best for: Enthusiasts seeking authentic muscle car character and style, drivers wanting a V8-powered performance car at reasonable cost, and those who prioritise fun and presence over practicality and efficiency.

Not ideal for: Families needing spacious rear seating, budget-conscious buyers concerned with fuel economy, or those seeking European-level handling precision and advanced safety technology.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Mustang if: You're an enthusiast seeking authentic muscle car character and style, want a V8-powered performance car at reasonable cost, or prioritise fun and presence over practicality and efficiency.

Consider alternatives if: You need spacious rear seating for families, are budget-conscious about fuel economy, or seek European-level handling precision and advanced safety technology.

Competitive Position: The Ford Mustang (2014-present) stands apart from its rivals as a true American muscle car offering exceptional character and value. Whilst the BMW M4 and Porsche 911 deliver superior handling and technology, they command significantly higher prices and running costs. The Mustang's appeal lies in its distinctive retro styling, charismatic V8 engine, and straightforward engineering that prioritises entertainment over sophistication. For buyers seeking authentic muscle car thrills without premium pricing, the Mustang is unmatched. However, those prioritising practicality, efficiency, or cutting-edge technology may find better value in more conventional rivals.
