They are cheap as they are at the age where most jobs make them an economic write off.

Some of the last ones are in the stupid road tax bracket of over £400 a year.
It’s a Ford so they rust.
Good front bumpers are stupid money. They are long and low and get smashed up on curbs.
They are heavy and along with shit roads it hammers the suspension, bushes ect.
They have a dual mass flywheel. If it doesn’t have receipts for being done. That’s an economic write off.
Due to the price of secondhand cats and space they can be a pain in the arse.
Mine had done 104k and there where multi oil leaks. Modine, cam covers, rear crank seal.

On a plus side I like the inside. Nice seats and loads of leg room. They don’t feel quick but they are smooth with a great v6 sound.
