Well 197 has gone today

Part ex'd, great fun car, but just couldn't get on with it
and the 5 weeks wait for a new manifold through ruk was the last straw,
great forum though with some good people, I will still lurk around
 
Sorry to hear you couldn't take to the car mate. But it's always good to see people sticking around. What are you getting next?
 
Ahhhh the lure of the Ford. Drove them for years, still my miss my Focus ST and its stupid usable power. Love my Clio though, just as fast on a decent road just a different kind of fast. And very possibly more fun.

Enjoy the mondeo.
