The Mondeo was never on her mind till she saw it, almost contemplated an auto, but talking to the salesman at Ford (who was a fellow manual driver) knew that she wouldn't be happy with the Auto. But like stated earlier Ford has until october to get a manual out here.
The kicker is if the new Falcon comes out looking as good as the Mondeo, then she might even get one of them (if there still isn't a manual Mondeo). She's driven mine a few times and the only problem I could see is that the car might be a tad big for her.
The Mondeo is just about the same size as a Falcon, even slightly bigger in some areas.

I agree with her assesment of the Lancer, some people like the styling but I hate the shovel nose on it.
