Thanks for the welcomes folks, I'm from Scotland, not far from Edinburgh and have been a regular on the Scottish Mondeo Forum since it begun in 2004 and I know how important it is to make others welcome, so thank you to you all.
Not happy to put up pics until I've given it a proper clean, but sadly I've got a slipped disc so cleaning is off the menu, despite the bag of Autoglym waiting to be used!
I've serviced my car and changed the power steering fluid, I've got a Mondeo cooler to go on. I'm waiting on tyres so running Mondeo 16's which I was given until I get my new tyres, the blue car has standard wheels done in white, mine are standard sliver complete with a couple of kerb marks sadly.
Bought mine then was offered an ST500 a week later, thankfully the guy wanted too much money so didn't feel so bad.
