So, i used to drive 2.0 tdci mk3 before i bought this focus, and now im planing to change to mk4 mondeo.

The car that i have in mind is 2010, 2.0 TDCI (140) automatic, driven 230k km...

The MK3 Did 470k km succesfully whitout a doubt before i sold it, could i assume same from the mk4?

The mk3 engine was fords own, the mk4 is aparantly borrowed from PSA? Any ideas if the CAM is chain driven, or belt driven (and how often it should be changed)... And owerall, is it worth to buy? I loved the MK3, but i have the doubts from the mk4 (especialy when the first psa engined car i bought was this focus, and 3 months after i was changing an engine to it)

the mk4 is a mixture of both, there is a cam belt that drives one cam and then a chain linking the cams togeather, ford say its 10 years or 125000 miles for replacemenbt but i would not leave it that long, better safe that sorry.
