Yes, just the day for it wasn't it.
It's always been looked after. The original owner treated it like a baby for it's first 17k miles, then I bought it off him. I use it all the time but it always gets anything it needs because it has to be reliable. Longest I've ever owned a car.Cheers

In fact I bought a 130tdci that's been sat in my garden for months now that I think's got a failure in either the pump or injectors etc. They're not easy to diagnose and it's not showing any fault codes, but now the weathers getting nicer I should be able to get on and have a look at it soon. Although I might find working on the Cossie gets my interest more so it gets put on the back burner!I only really bought it because it's very low miles for it's age (74k on a 55 plate), only had a couple of owners, and apart from the fact it doesn't run at the moment
it's a really clean one and got lots of good bits, 6 speed box, cruise etc.
if you look on E-BAY at spares or repair Mondeos it's more often than not because of pump or injector failure, it's very common.Cheers

Thanks mate, yes, I've always liked it, it's come up a treat with a good wash.
Did you notice I've got one of those Cosworth cam cover air fresheners too, actually you can't see it very well but it's hanging from the mirror. I think they were 3 for £4.99 and the smell is actually quite nice. Got them in all my cars.Cheers
