Cavcraft Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 You know that 'If you can't fix it with a hammer, it's an electrical problem' thing?

Also it has had another mot two months after it passed the last one? During the MoT extension three year old cars had the extension too. Look at the advisory and the expiry date. The mileage is unreadable because it hasn't had a test yet. I've seen loads of 67 plate cars with previous mileage unreadable which will stay on the certificate for the next four or five years. richardmorris and Stevebrookman 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

egg Posted February 3, 2021 Share Posted February 3, 2021 MK3 Mondeos are aging well in my opinion. In the age of most mid size vehicles being jacked up on stilts or having tiny headlights there's something just 'right' about the inoffensive styling. I'm sticking with my MK1, but in a couple of years it would be a good time to get a nice one as they go over the 20 year mark. Though I'm not keen on Ford Alloys from the early 00's.
