I mean the lag between gears, where it makes your head move backwards and forwards as it selects the next one, that motion, as little as it may be seems to make my wife ill, much to my amusement. More noticeable on smaller engined cars, not so much on a v6 or V8, I guess you have a V8 RR.
Also if you going for a TDCI make sure it the higher output model the lower one is a big gutless, had one for 5 months as hire car from work, now have a 160ps insignia and has way more power than the mondeo but I know they do higher power models.
The only wrong thing I found with the mondeo was the door handle is in the way when you try to operate the electric window switch, how that got past testing I don't know, other than that drives well, handles well, massive boot compared to the insignia and also much better viability out the windows, the insignia is rubbish too curvy so the head room it poor, leg room poor, boot space poor and you can't see much out the back window or sides.
