SMALL fleets and business users which do not benefit from special terms will be allowed to take advantage of discount prices on most Ford models as part of a summertime promotion to celebrate the company's 21st year as Britain's top-selling car maker. For the next four months, special-edition versions of the Fiesta, Escort and Mondeo will be offered at on-the-road prices lower than for regular models.

In all cases, they will also be fitted with extra equipment at no extra cost. In addition, Mondeo V6s will be available for the same price as a 2.0 automatic and as well as on a new flagship level Ka3, power steering is now standard across the Ka range.

This means a Mondeo Ghia 2.5 V6 is available for £17,955 and a Ghia X 2.5 V6 estate for £21,875, but the sports-oriented ST24 does not qualify for the offer.
