Default FAO Mondeo owners or ex Mondy owners

Been thinkin about gettin one for a while, ideally it'd be a mk1 Mondeo (L or M reg) 2.0 Si saloon with the RS kit and 16s etc. I'm thinkin drop it nice and low, light smoke on the windows and a full stainless. Just noticed they were pretty cheap to insure and i reckon they can look pretty smart.

Any opinions on these??

I got a Mk2 Mongayo with aircon, CD, etc etc, as my runaround.
They shit

16s on a big old Mondeo is too small as well. So are 17s really, but thats ok if its really low.

You need to add a 3rd line to you sig...

Corsa's are for learners
Saxo's are for girls
Mondeos are for taxi drivers

I've got 3 excellent as runarounds this is my latest one 2.5 V6 with full RS kit, big boot for all the junk, towbar for when the cossy breaks down being a Ford bits are cheap, excellent as runabouts thats why i've ended up with a few!

Thats what it'd be like, a run about with a tow bar for the 'scort!

They seem cheap as chips like, haven't seen a lot of rotters either??
