2015 Ford Fusion 2.0 Trend AT

[D3TTOL]

Wife is unhappy with the fuel consumption :'(. She didn't even give it 3 months chance.
Just seeing if there is any interest at all, If not I'll keep it as I love the car and get her some poofy rubbish 1 liter NA car that can't go up a hill.

I picked it up at a dealership in Howick and drove it up to JHB. The ride is amazing, Best car I've ever owned(Then again, Ive only owned a C4 before this xD)
Radar guided cruise control, Blue teeth, ABS and all those fancy safety features. Reverse camera, Parking sensors, Huge ass boot... Best of all though... Folding mirrors!
You know you have made it when your car's mirrors fold.
New tyres on all four wheels.

Lowballers are more than welcome to throw their offers at me, Not that I will respond though.

Edit: In case it wasn't apparent, This has a Turrrbo. 2.0 ecoboost engine.

Titanium or Trend?
I was in the market for a car, but due to retarded family, my plans have been cut short for this year.

If this car is still here come next year, Id be very interested. Not a bad price at all.

Also, what was fuel consumption that made the SO unhappy?

It's the Trend, Titaniums go for way more.

9-10 L/100km when I drive it, So it's not really economical. My wife somehow manages between 11-13L/100km... Don't ask me how because she doesn't drive fast or aggressively at all, the only thing I can think of is that she coaxes the car along slowly instead of driving it normally to try save fuel and in turn uses more by going that slow? I have no idea, but as soon as I get into it and drive the fuel consumption drops from above 11L/100kms to below 10L/100km.

Edit:From some review on cars.co.za
Seems about right then I guess... What is extra urban?
Either way. Made it up from howick on one tank of fuel. Easily 600km+ when traveling.

Average	8.5 l/100km
Urban	11.6 l/100km
Extra Urban	6 l/100km

Yeah, that's not the greatest fuel consumption. Is that combined town and highway or just town driving?

 

[D3TTOL]

I drive it in town, to shops, restaurants and all that and manage +-9l/100. Obviously the long road drops it significantly to around 6.7L/100 when I came back from Howick. My wife drives to work and back, not far but I assume a lot of stop/start action ruins the consumption.

 

[D3TTOL]

Gonna lock this.

Mother in law got a picanto or something, Friend's girlfriend has a Honda Accord. My wife has been in both of them and she doesn't want to "downgrade" to something along those offerings soo she now likes the car and has decided that the cost of fuel is worth it. xD

Lucky for me, Yay.

Wifey not happy again.
She's being exploited a bit by her friends and family who want lifts and outings at her expense.
She doesn't want to tell them to get lost so she wants a little eco car now.
Sigh... I don't get to drive the car anywhere near enough to justify keeping it.
So it's back up to see if anyone is interested.

I updated the mileage.
Also to note, She phoned Ford for it's 80K service and they said on the system it had it's yearly service around april or may (I can't remember) so it only needs a basic service next year same time. Tyres are still practically new.
