The Escort Name Brand was dropped and replaced by the Focus as far as i know. there would be no sense in bringing it back now unless it was a one off line of High Spec cars.

And its a pity that all Fords are getting this Mondeo styling.

Cause all we will be doing is buying larger or smaller versions of the mondeo basically.

Yeah, I agree. Designers are geting lazy. Once they get a design they just stick to it. Justifying it as vehicle DNA or brand identity. I don't want mini-me mondeo. Want Focus.
