2016 FORD MUSTANG GT S550 - 750 BHP

This Ford Mustang GT is a thrilling modern muscle car, professionally upgraded and featuring design motifs inspired by the Shelby Super Snake. Under the bonnet lies a naturally-aspirated 5.0-litre V8, now producing approximately 750bhp thanks to a Roush supercharger, allied to a six-speed manual transmission. The odometer reads 46,750 miles.

First registered on 24 June 2016, this UK-market Mustang has two previous keepers on the V5C. The vendor states that approximately £25,000 has been invested in mechanical and visual upgrades.

Finished in menacing metallic black, the Mustang is protected by an application of paint protection film (PPF) – with the exception of the bonnet area. The paint finish presents very well, with only a handful of stone chips visible on the scooped and slatted front end. A Cervini power hood and side scoops add further visual aggression, while carbon-fibre front grille and tail light panels give this car a motorsport-inspired aesthetic. It rides on staggered Ferrada Forge-8 alloy wheels, which are free of any blemishes or kerb grazes.

Inside, the pony car’s black leather interior remains in good condition. Its electrically adjustable front seats are both heated and cooled, and free of rips, tears or other damage. Signs of use are visible to the Roush gear knob, leather handbrake grip and carbon-fibre accented steering wheel, commensurate with the age and mileage.

This example’s Ford Sync multimedia system remains in good order and also benefits from selectable driving modes and launch control. The vendor states that everything is in full working order, and there are no warning lights illuminated on the dashboard.

The most recent service was carried out at 43,423 miles in June 2020 by model specialist Modurstang of Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire. This was an engine oil and filter change, with previous regular servicing carried out in December 2019 and July 2019 by the same garage. A full list of the car’s extremely detailed upgrades is included below, with the Roush Stage II supercharger and Wortec ECU remap to 750bhp the headline attractions for this special custom vehicle.

The most recent MOT test was on 21 January 2021 at 46,743 miles. This was a clean pass at the second time of asking, following replacement of the nearside rear brake disc due to a fracture. The wheels are shod in Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres, which are in good order with ample tread remaining and no signs of damage.

This Ford Mustang GT is a well-maintained and substantially enhanced example of the iconic US muscle car, with eye-opening outright performance from its supercharged V8 to match its aggressive looks. Offering a welcome roster of upgrades as well as a gloriously analogue driving experience, it would be an exciting weekend toy, long-distance companion, or even an attention-grabbing daily driver for its next owner.
