BRENTWOOD, Essex, 18 December, 2008 – Ford has launched a brand new version of its popular customer website (www.ford.co.uk) using the latest online technology to deliver an easily accessible, user-friendly and practical tool for car and light commercial vehicle buyers across the UK.
The site offers detailed information for car and van buyers, and even provides potential customers with the ability to book test drives at their nearest Ford dealer.
Roelant de Waard, Ford of Britain chairman and managing director, said: “The new Ford customer website is a natural progression of Ford’s 'Feel the Difference' campaign which reinforces the choice of Ford as a leading supplier of high quality cars and vans.”
