Late Summer haze, down the front. I've done bugger all to the car this year, deferred maintenance list getting a bit long.

Last taxed 2002 that one - 9 year service life! Many Mondeos worked hard (as Warren shows us)

It’s had an excellent innings. I wonder if the bumpers live on?

To be fair to the banger boys, several now seem to offer out bits they won't use quite readily, no idea if their prices are fair, but that's been good to see.

Good luck, I'm sure the 'specialist Mondeo breakers' (banger boys) will be all over it!

There's a guy called Ross in the MK1 Mondy group who is building the world's first(?) 3 door MK1 estate. Finally got it in primer.

People are daft like that in the misguided principle they’re doing someone a favour. As you say some ‘specialists’ will be along to ship it off with a hi-ab, but then they’re the people that turn up and shift it promptly, the enthusiasts piss about usually no end.

I'd have taken it on had I been in a position to, but I'm not so no point wasting their time

Looks like an M-reg in this photo, but thought it'd be one to share on here. Taken in 2002, or thereabouts.

For sale is a very rare citrine mondeo project 211 originally made not many left not everyone’s cup of tea being yellow but a very rare car don’t come up for sale often will need service etc as been in unit a few years and think the end of sills might need patching and attention to rear arches comes with the correct seats pictured but currently fitted with st24 half leather previous owners taste and blue alloys so would need painting silver again cash on collection could sort delivery if a far but message for a quote down sizing my projects and I have 2 more of these as it is viewing welcome thanks

‘Might want attention to the rear of the sills’ If that doesn’t want a foot letting in forward of the back wheels then im the Shah of Iran.

Sorry @egg it's not a K plate, just a mk1 but a nice one. I'd probably be giving this a go if I didn't have a knackered citroen in the garage. It's done 41 miles since it's last test in '21  and pretty much that's all it's travelled in the last 10 years. MOT history suggests it's not a rotter....yet

@Marshall2810looks good, I wonder if the auto box has shat itself? As they can do...

Sierraman will know more, but they don't have the best reputation, but I think it's more from an age perspective - and autos are fairly thin among the survivors.
