Nothing, unless you count the funny noise from the exhaust as a problem.

How do you mean?

Service intervals are every 10k. Next service due at 90k. But as it's beginning to be a high miler (and for a 12v) I wanted to get some fresh oil in there PLUS I'm going to be using it for Uni, about 300 miles per week.

5) Faded paint work and mis-match paint work due to crashes

Blew at least one turbo on the Autobahn
Lacquer damage on rear 3/4
Mental epileptic rev counter
Rear bumper needs fixing where some muppet mutilated a fog light in.


Apart from that, seems fine.

1. Mine's a Ford
2. I crashed it a couple of weeks ago and the front end is crushed in quite badly.
3. The brakes are shit (hence above point)
4. It really needs a full service
5. The petrol cap got stuck, so smashed it off, now have a cheap plastic temporary replacement which has been on there for 8 months. Must get to ford and get new one done
6. I broke the key, so am using the master key, that is dodgy too and is gonna snap anyday..must get a new one done.

never buy a ford.
