[QUOTE="zan, post: 544451, member: 9632"] There are 3 motor divisions of Ford generally... 1. North American Ford where they produced large size sedans and pick up trucks like Mercury, Taurus and T100. But in recent years they shared expertise in producing new models similar to European countries. 2. Ford of Europe are basically based in Germany and in the UK. High consumption cars do not make any sense in Europe so, Ford of Europe produced cars of variable sizes to suit the market. They started with Fiesta either in 3 or 5 dr hatchback, then the Escort which later on became Focus. Ford Cortina was produced in the 70s and was succeeded by ahead-of-its-time Sierra including the sporty XR4i, XR4x4 and Sierra Cosworth other than estate version and sedan Sierra Sapphire. AFter 10 years of service, Sierra was replaced by all new Mondeo which is also available in US market. * Ford Cortina was made basis for Hyundai Stellar which later became the Sonata since 1990 to its present shape today. Other than these cars, Ford Europe was responsible for Granada (highest spec was Granada Scorpio), Capri (late 70s to early 80s in 2.0 and 2.8 EFI form), the Escort booted version - Orion (as Jetta to Golf, and Belmont to Astra) and later in the nineties the sporty Ford Puma and its larger sibling Ford Cougar, supermini Ford Ka and Ford Maverick (a rebadged Nissan Terrano). 3. The Japanese managed to get a license from Ford to create a division there and they somehow shared expertise with Mazda in producing all the model line-ups. It started with Laser - equivalent to 323 and Telstar which under the skin is only a 626. As the sporty versions of European Ford is known by XR, Japanese specs is known as TX (TX3 for laser and TX5 for Telstar). However, the top end luxury spec for any Ford remains the same - Ghia. Nevertheless, Ford originally began in the US with the famous T model produced about 27 million. [/QUOTE]
