Several months later........
My curent daily expired a few years ago, but its still going somehow?
So im on the lookout for a replacement and could do with an estate.
Dailys still going just about and still looking for an ST estate
Will see how prices are once this Covid blip is sorted out

not quite a blip
a rare car and a pandemic isn't helping much.
Could really do with a Estate now, just needs to have a bit of go and be around 2k, but there just aint much out there these days.
Once apon a time, there were V8 5 series E39s for £1000 , and the like, then everyone got suckered in to Diesels are clean and economical ( the last bit might be true )
and then even petrol V6s or straight 6 lumps become a rare thing
guess there is a mk4 mondeo with the focus ST 5 pot lump, shame its one boring looking car
