Ford Kuga - Paris motor show - 2008

So we keep breezing past the Ford stand here at Paris, and what's catching our eye? A Kuga.

It's not any old bog standard Kuga mind, but a bad boyed up one that Ford's done itself, in house.

And frankly, as much as we shouldn't, we like it.

We know this is wrong. We know the lairy wheels, flared arches and aggro front end aren't what we're supposed to think is good on a soft-roader, but we can't help ourselves.

The proportions just look, well, right.

Don't agree? No, thought not.

We'll take ourselves outside for a good kicking now.

Sorry.
