NZ XR6, you are quite correct.
The OZ on road new MD Titanium Wagon shows as north of $55k and yesterday there were more than 10 MY18.25 such vehicles shown as Ex Ford Exec vehicles in the $33K region with first registration dates leading up to end June 2018. That's a whopping 40% depreciation and is an indication of the Dealer purchase price for a new car.
Problem is that we have not had our car for long enough (still has 6 months of the Manufacturer's warranty to go) - But I notice at Ford's web site the Titanium Mondeo wagon is still present and can be "optioned" I didn't go into that but I would guess it is limited to dealer fitted stuff rather than factory fitted options.
Off the topic, but I discovered (accidentally) today that our car has switches for heated outboard rear seats, as I was looking for something in the rear footwell - there they are 'Hidden" behind the back edge of the oddments box. And I wonder how many owner's know there is a 240V inverter outlet down there too?
