Ford used cars

Everywhere you go, you’ll probably see a used Ford car. Whether it’s on UK B-roads or the highways of the USA, one of its models will be lurking, and that’s testament to their excellent build quality. 

There’s a reason Ford USA’s slogan is ‘Built Ford Tough’, but this is also true for cars on our side of the pond. 

History of Ford

Ford is one of the longest-running car companies in the world and has been making best-selling vehicles since the Model T in 1903. Famously, Henry Ford said, “Customers can have a car painted any colour so long as it’s black.” 

The famous ‘blue oval’ is one of the most recognisable badges in the world, and has been updated 10 times since it first appeared in 1903. 

Today, used Ford cars stand for reliability, safety and familiarity. All modern examples are packed full of tried-and-tested parts that make them very dependable and hard-wearing. 

Standout Ford features

Standout features include a high-quality infotainment system running Ford’s SYNC software that allows you to connect your smartphone via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.  

There’s tech as far as the eye can see, especially in the higher Titanium and ST trim levels.   

Safety is impressive too, as you’d expect from a brand focused on making family cars.  

Looking at its most recent Euro NCAP crash-test scores, used Ford cars offer high levels of safety for both adult and child occupants. This is thanks to safety equipment such as ISOFIX child seat points, automatic emergency braking (AEB), and lane assist systems. 

Driving a Ford

Fords have always been easy to drive thanks to a wide range of gearbox and engine options. No matter which model you choose, it won’t take much getting used to. 

In terms of running costs, used Ford cars have always been known for their affordability and cheap-to-run nature, whether they’re petrol, hybrid or diesel. 

The electric models are the ones to have for zero tailpipe emissions, but even the hybrid petrol options are very fuel-efficient and can travel many miles on a single tank.  

You should consider a used Ford for sale if you need a dependable car to get you from A to B while looking stylish. With a range of gearbox options and insurance costs, there’s a model for everyone. 

Popular used Ford cars

From petrol and diesel models to hybrid and electric cars, there’s a used Ford car for sale for everyone.  

Some of its more sought-after models include the now-discontinued Fiesta, the larger Focus hatchback or estate, and the Puma small SUV.  

If you fancy something with electric power, however, then the Mustang Mach-E and all-electric Explorer are best for you.
