Ford Bronco becomes available in UK from specialist dealer
New Jeep Wrangler rival starts at £45,000 from Clive Sutton, which provides a two-year, 30,000-mile warranty
The new Ford Bronco has arrived in the UK through specialist Clive Sutton, and the retailer’s order books are already full until 2023.
The new SUV is imported from the US by the dealer, which specialises in desirable, unique and powerful vehicles.
Prices start at £45,000 and rise up to £85,000. In the US, the car starts from $29,995 (£23,700).
The Jeep Wrangler rival is driven by either a 2.3-litre Ecoboost turbo petrol engine producing 266bhp and 310lb ft or a larger 2.7-litre Ecoboost turbo petrol offering 306bhp and 400lb ft.
A seven-speed manual gearbox with an integrated crawl gear is standard and a 10-speed automatic optional.
Clive Sutton has said that it will provide a comprehensive two-year, 30,000-mile warranty in place of Ford’s standard warranty offering, which doesn't apply in the UK.
“As soon as Ford announced the new Bronco 4x4 SUV, we had enquiries from customers far and wide,” said company founder and CEO Clive Sutton.
“Alongside our core luxury and supercar services, we pride ourselves on being the first to bring the most desirable models to the UK from the US.
“The Bronco offers British buyers a way to stand out from the crowd in a vehicle that's as capable as it is distinctive.”
The Bronco is available as a two-door or four-door model with a three-section removable roof system as standard. Four-door models have four removable sections and both models have frameless doors.
Fitted as standard is a new terrain management system named GOAT (Goes Over Any Terrain) with seven driving modes, including Slippery, Sand, Baja, Mid/Ruts and Rock Crawl.
A high-and-low-range gearbox, trail-turn assist, an electronic front differential and a rear-locking differential are all included as standard, plus the stabiliser bar can be disconnected.
Long-travel Bilstein dampers are available for the long-travel suspension as an option.
