Hi all,
Sorta following on from my recent stolen Belmont post I've been offered a 77k 93, silver, 1.6, 16v Mondeo saloon.
It's available via the family cheap, has been with the last owner for
7 years and been pampered and garaged etc.I think it's recently had a clutch and cambelt (not that it needed the clutch apparently but he just thought it might ) so I just wondered what sort of mpg you would realistically expect from it if driven reasonably and is it the sort of thing one would feel happy to drive a distance in (daughter is currently in Scotland, and given the alternatives of a Ka or 200K 218SD Rover?). ;-)
I might pop round and have a look at it tonight, see what the Mrs thinks of it.
I'm thinking the Rover /is/ getting a bit ragged now and assuming the Belmont doesn't come back we could have the Mondeo as our 'family' car and the Ka for her for work or us running about daughter learning etc?
If it's the saloon I guess it might be less 'useful' then the 5dr Rover and I really like the idea of an estate again ..
Cheers, T i m
