Just wondering Grin
Are mn sponsored by them or something?
Not distracting myself with useless ponderings at all

Wondered the same. Could do with a general car/motors page (unless there is one I haven't found?).

StrongTeaHotShower · 22/10/2016 18:09

I think it might be a front for mumsnet's dodgy crime/mafia side. All the ford stuff is really a code language for their dealings.

I don't think it's about cars at all. Did you look at any threads in the topic?

BombadierFritz · 22/10/2016 18:10

there is one
the ford one is left over from a trial/sponsored feedback thread apparently
although I like the idea of mumsnetters all driving ford smaxs

StrongTeaHotShower · 22/10/2016 18:11

I did. Lots of talk about galaxy's Confused

Haven't gone on it, but could be Gina Ford related?

Anniegetyourgun · 22/10/2016 18:11

Oh, I've just looked at it and it is about cars! Well well.

Scribblegirl · 22/10/2016 18:12

X post! Obviously not then Grin

pinkeye · 22/10/2016 18:12

Some people test drove Fords to review on mn a few years back now

Topknob · 22/10/2016 18:13

Ford Focus RS for me, none of that S-Max stuff Grin

EmpressKnowsWhereHerTowelIs · 22/10/2016 18:13

I think it was something to do with a long-ago corporate deal.

MidnightVelvetthe7th · 22/10/2016 18:13

It could be a talk board for fans of Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy? Grin

Mirandawest · 22/10/2016 18:13

A few years ago there were various testing things done by mumsnetters - some people got to test drive cars for a number of weeks and there was an event at Donington (I went to that one).

TisMeTheLadFromTheBar · 22/10/2016 18:19

Anyone know about the Ford SMax or a Grand CMax? Would you recommend either and can you fit 3 car seats across the back row?

EmpressKnowsWhereHerTowelIs · 22/10/2016 18:24

I was wondering why Zaphod called Ford Ford instead of Ix, but I've found the answer now.

pinkandsparklytoo · 22/10/2016 18:31

Yes three car seats fit easily in the S-max. We have a infant seat, a erf seat and a high back booster in ours.

LowDudgeon · 22/10/2016 18:56

nearlyhadenough there is a Cars topic

here (not very busy though)

Nearlyhadenough · 22/10/2016 19:01

Thanks LowDudgeon - I obviously hadn't searched well enough!!
