Taurus to replace the Mondeo? Crown Victoria to replace the Sierra? You have never seen these cars?

First, the Mondeo replaced the Sierra. Second, the Taurus is bigger than the Mondeo and the Crown Victoria is CONSIDERABLY larger than the Sierra. I don't see the comparison here.

Additionally, the Freestar is too large for European markets.

Unhappy Calm yourself!

Wow, Don't rip my head off!

First of all I frequently travel back and forth between Montana and England, so I have seen all these cars.

Just forget that england has astronomical fuel prices, tiny roads and a crap road network. Now imagine these cars. I know that hardly anyone would be able to afford to run a big 8.2 Liter Chevy Suburban e.t.c....
Just Imagine!, What would you LIKE to see in this country?, I didn't suggest that these cars could be marketed.

The last generation Mondeo was sold in the US as the Contour. The current Mondeo is quite different.

firstly- the Crown Victoria and Taurus are not nearly as good cars as the Mondeo and the Mondeo is the replacement for the Sierra so what is the point?
