But finding a decent one in good condition is becoming harder now in as near standard form IMO. Mrs Nobster isn't impressed she prefers the ST.But she does like the front with the vented bonnet. Women lol.

Ner ner, I said it would do 30mpg, Nobster reckoned 27mpg It's a lovely car and I miss it I changed to me slippers at Pease Pottage Services. You'll get to see it again sometime. Just going through Service paper work for her and coming up with a to do list. 1) Cambelt Still checking when it was last done. Seem to remember 4-6 years ago so if that's the case that's No 1 priority but there again it's not done that many miles since then about 10-12k miles!! 2) Service what type Full or oil filter etc not sure yet. Need to find out the spark plugs for these as the originals may have been superseded and the oil grade specified is 5W/50 synthetic to spec API SG/CD and CCM G5? It mentions Ford Formula S synthetic or 5W/50 synthetic oil. 3) A couple of electrical niggles I picked up on the journey home. One is the drivers window switch (intermittent) sometimes needs a helping hand on the glass to help it along. The other electrical issue is the Graphic Information Module sometimes shows a bulb failure on the o/s front and n/s rear lights but not always came on and off whilst driving. It could be faulty bulb(s)/fuse or both or just a bad contact? It's ruddy cold enough out their for snow today. I've got to take some pictures for the agreed valuation so I'll put a few up later on tonight of the inside etc and the engine bay.

Nice looking car, you must be well chuffed. Yes I am chuffed and it was worth waiting for to find IMO a good one thanks to Rhubarbs help saved me a lot of leg work which could have been a witch hunt as it's along way to go and come home empty handed. It's also a rare colour as well.
