My Mondeo ST220:
Just a two bucket method clean

Before:




After:







I also bought this for my GF on Wednesday. Its her 21st in July/Finishing Uni in May present & her Z12XE Corsa C likes to drink oil as much as petrol so I thought I would get a TT.

This one has Xenons, Bose, Heated leather and the 225 engine, FASH. Very nice car for the age and miles. Has a years MOT and 4 new tyres, cambelt/tensioner/water pump done. Also had the rear springs and coilpacks replaced at Audi last year. I paid £3750 which I don't thinks to bad for the age. I gave it a quick clean yesterday. Think I may paint the wheels the same colour as my ST next weekend?!

Love the ST220. Don't care much for the TT, but nice for a girls car I suppose.

Cheers Blukoo, Yeh I love the ST, bit thirsty though. TT, she's happy with it, and its a million miles better than her old car!

The car in the garage is a kit car called 'Lomax'. Based on a Citroen 2CV chassis/engine/



and infront of it is an S55 AMG.


both my 80year old grandads! Both just live in the garage.

That TT is a very good price, great choice of car. The Mondeo looks really nice as well, colour suits it perfectly.

My old man used to have a Lomax in british racing green, it was the single rear wheeled version like the old Morgan.

So, I painted the wheels and callipers today. Rubbed them down, filled, primed e.t.c as they were curbed badly! Also had all the callipers and pads off as they were squeaking badly. All seems OK now!

Quite happy with the results only spent yesterday doing it and cost around £30-£40, have a can of spray paint left over ready for when she curbs them ...
