pragmatix Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Looks good 18" tyres will be pricey to replace, 17's are bad enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1djspikey Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 Looks good 18" tyres will be pricey to replace, 17's are bad enough Hi pete yeah they are a bit pricey but i use to be in the tyre and exhaust trade so luckly i still got good cantacts B) it looks a lovely car but the mondeo estate i got now is going back to were i bought it from as after talking to the trading stanards i have got the right to take it back to the dealer were and hes happy to refund as they lied to me about the car as i did a bit of homework from the last owner who told me what was wrong with it. im going to test drive it tomorrow but this time im going to make sure the engine is up to running temp before i buy even if i have to stick o fiver of fuel in it not falling for that one again ;) are zetec engines ok as ive spoke to some folks but wasnt sure about them john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pragmatix Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 John, good move with the estate, hope this one works out, it looks like a lovely car. The plus point is you now know what to look for, once bitten twice shy. If you think this is the car for you why not get an independant motor enginer to give it the once over, the AA will do this regardless of wether you are a member or not.
