Found the Holy Grail - A good parts man
There are a few Ford dealers around my way, and some of them also do Nissan and Pug. So sometimes it can be a pain trying to get any sense out of the Parts department for a car 15 year old.
But alas I think I have cracked it. The parts man in the Neath Ford Dealers is a legend. Went down there for a rocker cover gasket last week, he got the price up said hhhmm thats a bit steep and then phoned his mate to see if he has any in his garage for me.
Then today, I asked for a door moulding for my saph, which I believe to be almost non existant anymore, and he tracked one down to a site in Germany, and reckons he can get it to me for next week. This guy is a my hero!!!!

alot of parts are still out there if the ford people can be bothered to look, my blokes at fords are awesome, tracked down loads of NLA parts that are still in stock at some branches.
Chatter box aka Alex zvh cabrio is the same mate. Any part you need for a ford he knows someone or somewhere he can get it.
TOP GEEZER as well. South London area tho! Fords in Epson

Yeah swansea had a bad rep over the years but, I live out near clydach now so its not so bad. You just need to be sensible with where you park and what you leave on show.
Mrs was in the institute and had her Mx5 done twice (the 2nd time was the day it was repaired from the 1st), I would say around there has to be one of the worst areas in swansea for it.
So once the degrees done your onto a cos, or RST I take it.

Dunno yet about my degree, got an Escort 1.4i at the mo cos thats about as far as my insurance can stretch, but RST or Cossie is a certainty when money permits
