After 6 months of driving it I'm kind of bored of it. Its also a little inconvenient as it won't fit in our garage so I am always blocking someone in.

 

I do enjoy it as its big and comfortable but I don't really need such a big car for just myself.

 

It has tax until August 2014 and MOT until February 2014. Its a MK3 Mondeo Graphite 1.8 duratorque petrol. Its done about 105500 miles but will increase due to be used as my daily drive.

 

Its grey in colour, comes with aircon, CD player, 16" standard ford alloys, is a hatchback, 5 speed manual, it was serviced at the 100K mile mark and have the receipt to prove it. It had brand new front brakes then and I have put a new set of rear springs in (swapped as a pair not just one side). Never been smoked in.

 

I value the car at £1000

 

I will put some pictures up on the weekend when I can take them in the light.

 

A test drive is available as long as you turn up with your documents. No tyre kickers please.

 

What I'm after.

 

Looking for something that is preferably a bit smaller (astra/ focus size so it will fit in our garage), is diesel and done no more than 120k miles (I do 20k a year myself). Tow bar would be nice and a hatchback is preferable.

 

Must not be modified in anyway (works insurance won't allow modifications), must have MOT and tax as I need it for my daily drive and be a manual (due to my diabetes I will never drive an auto incase I was to go hypo at the wheel, I don't want the car to take off by itself).

 

Try me with what you've got. I will even consider a mini as long as its got MOT and tax. I can throw a bit of cash in  and/or some mini parts for the right car

Pictures as promised.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Best part of a mondeo. Its huge boot

 

 

Obviously not being a brand new car it does have a few dings and scrapes. These are the worst of them.

 

Scrape at the bottom of the boot

 

Tiny dent in N/s wing. Probably caused by a stone or something

 

Tiny dent on top of the bonnet

 

 

Scrape on the front bumper. Thanks to whoever did this one while it was parked at work and drove off afterwards!

 

 

Front bumper. Probably a rock or something.

 

 

A little bit of bubbling paint work at the bottom edge of the passenger door (a bit hard to see). This door also has a bit of a ripple in the panel round the door lock. 

 

The rest of the car is absolute solid underneath. No rot or corrosion.
