2.2 HDi The Next Generation

[steve_earwig]

What's the 2.7V6 HDi like?

You mean a Ford TDV6...

[rwb]

Someone must have bought it then

I can't remember much of the history.
First owner sold it to We Buy Any Car, who are part of Carcraft from whom the second owner bought it. But the second owner preferred his Honda, so that's how it got where it is now. I think the second owner didn't have it long.

The interior is immaculate, other than the usual scratches on the door handle.

The only evidence of servicing is the stamps in the book every 20k, which isn't great.


The V6 diesel is a Ford (and therefore not for me) unit that's also used in Jags and Range Rovers. Had one here in a 407 coupe a couple of months ago to go on PP2000. Turbo control problem.

All that is small talk.

The important question is: does it have proper cup holders? And not the excuse for a cup holder that doesn't hold any cups in the 406......

I must admit the cup holders in the 406 are nothing to write home about
I like the VAG cars that have a push out cup holder... I wish ours had similar

Cor Blimey they build the facking fing in Dagenham, if that fing ever facks app you'd have a lot of Barney Rubble with your Haddock and Bloater

Doubly undesirable, the v6 is a Ford and you can't get a manual.

By all accounts the 2.7 wasn't any great shakes and the 3.0 only a bit better.

I suspect a breathed upon twin-turbo 2.2 would leave them both for dust.

What cup holders?

If you buy a French car with Ford engine, then frankly you deserve all you have coming.

Too true......... Behind you all the way rwb!

Funnily enough one of my mates maintains the cnc machines that do the cylinder heads there, when developing the new diesels they had to redevelop the cylinder heads to an inferior design, because psa didn't have the capability to make machine them the same. (They do them old skool on a production line).

....and not only....

I asked what they've done to prepare the car:

We have put 2x Tyres, Tracking, Rear window regulator, new speaker, MOT'd Serviced & Brake fluid change. The new tyres should sort pressure problem as one had a nail in it?

Which basically shows how inadequate my inspection was when I visited. Probably good that I bought from a dealer rather than private.

Looks really nice mate. Can't say I'm overly shocked at you buying it though as you've been hankering after one for ages. Hope the reality lives up to your expectations. Never driven a 2.2 170, but drove them when they first came out with the 2.0 136 & the power on that was good enough for me.

Another good sign. Not many good ones like that about.
