Hi All and thanks for accepting me to the group :-)

I have recently purchased a stunning S-max 2008 2.2 titanium Individual in black with 45,000 on the clock. Purchased from a main dealer but have just checked fluid levels (being rather warm at the mo) noticed that some idiot (must have been when it was serviced before purchase) has over filled the Oil- I have looked underneath but unsure where the Sump is to drain some out- Help me guys-

Thanks
