The diesel version was just called "ST tdci" The ST200 was the mk2 modeo.. Apart from that little nit pick, enjoy the car Martin, I had the ST tdci and it was and still is, the best all round car I've ever had.. Great looks, great handling, and great power.. even for as diesel.. I did drive the 3.0 V6 ST that a friend had, which was very nice and powerful, but very very thirsty.. I eventually got rid of mine, as it was getting on and becoming a money pit.. but i do miss it..

@lewis72 3 года назад

Some years ago (2009/2010) I was running a manual E39 528i, that was in for some work and I got to borrow a friend's Mk3 Mondeo. I was really impressed with it. I think the steering feel was better than the E39's. It was a very enjoyable drive and it was just a mid-spec (Zetec, I think) with the 2.0 petrol engine. My only two criticisms of the Mondeo were: - Road noise was a bit on the high side. - Brake pedal needed a very firm shove to get it to slow.

@retrorestore 3 года назад

Yes they hold the road well. These brakes are very good.

@retrorestore 3 года назад

I've ordered a secondhand set to refurbish Adie.

@Zadster 3 года назад

Moosing - The previous Mondeo with the Duratec 2.5 V6 also did it, but usually only at idle. The cause on this engine is the bellows pipe between the throttle body and the air filter. They are fine when new, but over time the rubber hardens, so when airflow reaches a certain speed, the air oscillates. The official Ford fix was a replacement pipe, but I guess they are difficult to find now. So if the idle control valve doesn't fix it, that's where to look next. Great car though, I'm jealous - perfect colour, Recaro leather, looks really well kept and just old enough for the cheaper tax too. I would also go back to silver wheels. Those engines are limo smooth below 3500rpm, above that rpm the secondary inlet valves open up and it goes into sports car mode. On the motorway you should see 40+mpg at normal motorway speeds. Incidentally, this engine was designed by Porsche for Ford, and Cosworth developed the cylinder heads. They love being revved, especially in tunnels...

The 'wing mirrors' that you have mentioned a couple of times are not actually 'wing mirrors'. They are 'door mirrors'. Older cars had 'wing mirrors' when they were fitted to wings. Cars nowadays have 'door mirrors' as they are fitted to the doors. One of my pet hates when people refer to them incorrectly. Lovely car though. Be interesting to know your average MPG.

@JohnWD40TC02 3 года назад

Lovely car Martin, you may already know but keep an eye on the rear bumper as the rear of the bumper tends to sag which makes the front go up and hits the wheel arch which in turn cracks the paint, mine started to do it just before I sold it, you can easily tell by looking at the chrome strip on the lights to make sure the bumper is level with the chrome strip plus by the line along the rear quarter, from what I can tell yours looks ok. I paid £9k for mine but it was only a couple of years old, good advise on doing the checks, I always do an HPI check on all my cars. The moosing does sound like a resonance and it always seems to be at around 2000rpm, hope you get it sorted.

@retrorestore 3 года назад

Thanks John, I'll get to the bottom of the Moosing. Forums are full of rubbish and conflicting info so I'll be documenting it all in a video.

@alanhunter2051 3 года назад

Martin There were a couple of air venturi issues from new. The air box butterfly shaft wares slightly creating that noise. The other is its giving a false reading and fighting to stay closed as it seems to be just above tick over. I cant mind if you have a ECU reader/fault clearer. Might clean up as could be stuck from lack of use... If not fit a new unit. That is a cracking car and the only colour to have. Yes wheels look pants white. good luck

MOT history can also work against sellers. My old car had a lot of advisories which I fixed post MOT and a potential buyer didn't even come and see my car because he looked up the MOT history and said theres too many advisories on the last MOT even though I told him i got those fixed after MOT was done and also provided photos and parts receipts but he still wouldn't believe me. Wouldn't make sense to pay for another MOT just to clear the advisories.

Booming sound sounds like an air-cavity resonance (Helmholtz resonator); like blowing across the top of a milk bottle.

@bunabuna9287 3 года назад

Moosing noise is idle air control valve 100%. Rear crank case hose always spilt on these. Replace with ebay upgraded silcone hose. Rear wheel arch liner sound proofing area's are prone to rust bad. Its a must to unseal this asap if yours is still OK. I had to get mine cut out and welded up not cheap.

@stevek3036 3 года назад

the noise clearly has to be induction related - most more modern petrol engines have a kind of 'expansion chamber' in the intake system to act as a capacitor to eliminate induction pulses from each cylinder on the induction stroke - it might be that on this engine the induction tracts start to resonate (vibrate) at certain revs' - I'm not familiar with these engines but if you can try testing with the whole intake system removed it will prove positive that the design is the cause?

For me, it has brought up a car that had finance on it, and also one that had been written off (the owner got really shitty when I pointed this out and didn't believe me). I also always say that people should ALWAYS take someone with them who knows something about cars to look it over, or pay someone to do it. It may sound harsh, but I have no sympathy for anyone who doesn't, then throws their toys out the pram when something goes wrong, or something was obvious. Seen it happen too many times now :(
