Serious eye damage may result. This was a Ford factory color in 1993, and apparently each of Ford’s UK dealers got one as part of the Mondeo’s introduction.

I love it! Cars these days have no color choice anymore....mostly just black, red, silver, gray and white...sometimes a blue.

You learn something new every day. Also, I don’t hate it.

Ford’s first true “world car,” so named because it was visible from space.

When I started driving school, my instructor had a text marker yellow Astra F. He then switched camps and got a MK III Golf. The day before delivery he made me drive through the VW lot like a kid waiting for christmas morning. “Which one is it you think?” “The only one that looks like it was painted with an orange text marker of course.”

He saw it as a safety feature, but it didn’t really help business as a lot of kids didn’t want to be seen dead in his cars.

I always wondered as a kid if that was a factory color or not. Someone in my town had a Mondeo Turnier in that color many years ago.

Ha he probably should have opted for the GTI, that probably would have been ok even in orange.

At least in the U.K. it was.

It is definitely a bold choice that's for sure.

I'd drive it, with a pair of sunglasses on.

You'd never lose that car in a parking lot.

I’m not sure you’re the most impartial judge of this color.
