Pillock Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Egg's going to scramble himself looking at those pictures!Mind you.... it's late.

overrun Posted August 6, 2017 Author Share Posted August 6, 2017 I reckon it will only possibly be for sale when the owner kicks the bucket.Needless to say, original owner and still tickled by the supplying dealer. Imagine if it was a 4dr Si. *SWOON* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schaefft Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Nice, would be even nicer if it was the 4-door. This will be worth a decent amount of money in the not too distant future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
egg Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Yeah it is a bit late . Sweet as, I mean the engine bay tells the story. 2 litre in the LX isn't that common either. Probably a bit too good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sigmund Fraud Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Is it owned by the stereotypical elderly gentleman, or does it belong to some eccentric collector that hoards 1990s street furniture Fords ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry Sheep Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 3k with a white background when it does come up for sale! I think I'd pay that. It'd be a shame not to use it, though. alf892 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkNWeigh Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 This reminds me of a missed opportunity from about 15 years back. The elderly neighbour of a wealthy customer passed away and she happened to mention that the executors wanted to clear the garage to sell the house but his "old Ford" was sitting there.Well I remember seeing him in an immaculate C reg Grananda Mk2 a few times over the years and I knew he hadn't driven for about 3 years, so said " I'll have !" And rushed round to have a look , imagining this Granada with a few thousand miles being mine for scrap value.Opened up the garage to be confronted with a fucking Mk1 Mondeo! Apparently he'd swapped the Granny a few years before. I made my excuses and left, didn't bother to get a price or even look at the Mondeo-chances are it would have been ultra low miles , but at the time of no interest to me. If only...

Schaefft Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Well, 15 years was a long time ago. That one probably would have ended up like most others by now. NorfolkNWeigh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is the mileage enough to overlook the fact it's not a mega-early one with black topped bumpers? No, but the colour is! Cuirass I think, looks absolutely spot on on Mondeos and you dont see many mk1s this colour. Also love the optinal extra rear lip spoiler on the tailgate. Yeah it is a bit late . Sweet as, I mean the engine bay tells the story. 2 litre in the LX isn't that common either. Probably a bit too good! Thats not a LX is it? with front fogs, rear head rests and colour coded door mirrors? Are those trims original genuine Ford ones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierraman Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Pedant speaking here but it's got the wrong antifreeze in it, it wants the red OAT stuff in it not the old blue glycol stuff. Lovely car though. Hopefully when said owner kicks bucket it will go to someone who'll enjoy it as opposed to either some shitehawk selling it for four large on eBay or worse, gets sold on to the banger racers for £80 'cos it's just an old car'.

sierraman Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 The trims it's got are early Si trims also fitted to some of the 24v ones. Not all Si had alloys despite being the 'sport' model. egg and oldcars 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah so its an Si, Egg confused me saying it was unusual to see a 2.0 LX. I knew they didnt come with alloys because ive seen mk2 Si's on trims, seemed a bit hit and miss what got them and what didnt on Si's, no realy rhyme nor reason, just had never seen that style of trim on an Si before.
