utter shit in my eyes, electrical issues everywhere and have really weak fuel pumps, tddi engines are good like in early mk3 mondeos, mk3 tdci engines are shit, not really hd any problems with mk4 apart from injectors.

Great diesels are 1.9 pd engines and bmw 30-35d etc engines!

I was looking for 330d and yes you can easily get one for £4.5k, get a good msport for that too, just avoid the auto gearboxes as they play up, manuals drive vry nice and with a remap cal pull like a train! sound good too
