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) marks the first time this iconic American muscle car was officially available in the UK, bringing its distinctive blend of retro styling and performance to British roads. Its design cleverly fuses elements from the 1964 original with modern aesthetics, featuring a long bonnet and shallow glasshouse. The cabin also draws inspiration from its heritage, with a recognisable double-cowl dashboard. While some interior plastics may be hard, the Mustang's enduring appeal lies in its value, particularly as a used purchase.

Despite its significant size, the Mustang offers a surprisingly usable 408-litre boot in Fastback versions, and comfortable driver ergonomics. Its sophisticated multi-link rear suspension improves handling on UK roads, though it retains an old-school, charismatic feel. The 5.0-litre V8 engine delivers a bellowing soundtrack and potent power, while the 2.3-litre EcoBoost provides a more efficient, albeit less characterful, alternative. Running costs for the V8 can be substantial due to low MPG, but overall maintenance is reasonable, and the car is built with durability in mind.

Best for: Drivers seeking an iconic, charismatic muscle car with a powerful V8 engine (GT models), those who value retro styling and a fun driving experience, and buyers looking for strong performance value on the used market.

Not ideal for: Buyers prioritising low running costs (especially with the V8), those needing spacious rear seats for adults, or those expecting the sharp, delicate handling of a European sports car.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Mustang if: You're seeking an iconic, charismatic muscle car with a powerful V8, value retro styling and a fun driving experience, or are looking for strong performance value on the used market.

Consider alternatives if: You prioritise low running costs (especially with the V8), need spacious rear seats for adults, expect the sharp handling of a European sports car, or require advanced safety tech.

Competitive Position: The Ford Mustang (2014-present) carves out a unique niche in the performance car market, delivering an unparalleled blend of iconic American muscle, charismatic V8 power, and strong value. While it may not offer the refined handling or cutting-edge safety systems of European rivals like the BMW M4 or Porsche 911, its distinctive retro styling, engaging driving experience, and affordability (particularly as a used purchase) make it an incredibly compelling choice for enthusiasts. The availability of both powerful V8 and more economical EcoBoost engines also broadens its appeal, positioning it as an accessible and exciting performance car.
