Or the Ford Mondeo Vignale.

Vignale is rumoured to cover all the Ford range in time offering a new top level of luxury by offering it as a sub brand for "time-poor, independent thinkers who want to be made to feel special".

Vignale will sit at the top of the Ford range above Titanium X, for the "10-15 per cent of potential buyers who want an even higher specification".

Martin Smith, Ford's European design director, said the Vignale line is a "more upmarket version of Ford DNA" using "modern industrial design and architecture as an inspiration".

The Vignale gets a new chrome-finish grille, a redesigned front bumper featuring substantial brightwork and LED foglights, unique 20in alloys, chrome door handles and mirror caps and 'Vignale' badging. The car does not wear ' Mondeo ' script.

So Vintage will be replacing Ghia? Did they have to cannibalise another Italian design firm to do it?

Titanium already replaced Ghia for the last few years. Vignale will sit on top of the Titanium and Titanium X with new levels of luxury and a more premium brand experience of buying and ownership.

"We are looking at all cars in the range, and we will execute Vignale where it's appropriate," said Martin Smith, executive director of design for Ford of Europe. "First of all we'll concentrate on the larger cars, then we'll take a look at the others. If the our Titanium trim is anything to go by it should be a big success."

Ford has confirmed that the new Mondeo will go on sale in the UK before the end of 2014, with the Mondeo Vignale available from early 2015. The new S-MAX will go on sale later in 2015 followed closely by an S-MAX Vignale. But Ford is keen to stress that the Vignale brand isn't only about the products.

"With Vignale the product is only half the story – the customer experience is just as important," said Roelant de Waard, vice president marketing and sales. "We are planning to launch 500 new flagship 'Ford Stores' across Europe, mainly in metropolitan areas."
