Get saving for a KPRO to improve that low/mid range :)

that is a possibility, later down the line I reckon.


Damn, you paid £4500. They've dropped a fair bit in price.
in fairness, it was a bargain price. looking at other cars with the same list of stuff, you are talking £5.5k
just have a look on pistonheads/AT and you will see for yourself.
I had budgeted £5.5k but the money I saved is going on tyres now :p

Got to say that is stunning!! Perfect colour too :)

And a bargain at £4.5k

I had looked at much more expensive ones with more miles and less SH with vastly inferior bodywork. There is not a single stonechip on that bonnet either which all the others I viewed suffered from

Rich sorry I had to.

it was expected in all honesty.
bloody troll :p

Your mondeo speedo is broken, please take it to ford to have it calibrated.

doing them speeds in a TDDI (not TDCI) will destroy the fragile fuel pump in your car :D


PS please clean your dash.

it does need a new fuel pump, i keep losing power and have to turn the ignition on and off to get power back

Thats a great price, mines 1 year newer, was as mint as I could get really and same milage as yours and I paid 750 quid more in Oct, I think that £4500 is a bargain really :)

FSH? Have the valve clearances/timing chain been checked?

Looks really nice!

Thanks :)
I saw it and had to go and check it out. it was either going to be a nail or the deal of the year. luckily it wasn't a nail :D

they have indeed. on the last service with Honda.

it has only done 4.5k since last service in Jan 11 so its technically not due a service but I will be sending it in to Honda this month. got my own oil today so it should work out cheaper.
