Gone to the dark side

Hi everyone!

It's been a long time since I posted what with wife in very poor health (thankfully on the mend now).
My V40 got written off last week when a beemer decided to jump a red light, I'm now the proud (yes, really!) owner of a 2008 Mondeo 2.0 TDCi Titanium X Estate!
I haven't taken any photos yet, it needs a damn good clean first.

Good to hear t'wife is betterer.

Pretty decent car the Mondeo in that spec too, should serve you well mate.

Try not to put Petrol in it though because it will sh*t itself badly

Thank you Welly! Yes the last diesel I had was my first car, a looooong time ago

Hope your wife keeps well. Bad luck with the Volvo, better luck with the Mondeo!
I definiely likes the estate better than the saloon.

Thanks Eric, she ended up having to have an ileostomy which touch wood has relieved pretty much all the pain, and she can eat again!

I hope you enjoy it! They have their issues but they are a superb mile muncher.
Worse thing I have ever done is replace my MK4 Mondeo with my Focus.
I should have just bought another.

We did all say there was a lot better things to spend over 20k on

Glad your wifes on the mend Teamy & enjoy the mondingo could well be my choice on replacement for the 406 when it's day is up
but with only 96k on the clock that'll be a while yet
