I'm after one of these as a memorial to my little brother.

His 5 Turbo was his pride and joy, but him and his girlfriend were killed in an accident on holiday when a mini bus T boned their car. (He wasn't in his car at the time, I'm currently restoring it as a rolling memorial.)

His was a phase 2. If anybody has one at a reasonable price, I'd love to buy it off of you!!

Thanks guys. It was three years ago this September.

Here's a pic of it next to my old car.



With the grill being repainted



Front bumper



Nearly there



and a side pic. He had a FMIC that he was going to fit, hence the number plate being moved! We all (except him!!!) hated the bloody sunstrip, but it would be unfair to take it off now!!



To be honest mate, I was going to buy the rally version (for the correct wheels) and the road going version. Then I was planning on spraying it Tungsten grey. If there's a spare set of wheels around, that would do!

Sorry to hijack the thread!!

Was a replica front bumper. All the money was spent on the engine. Single turbo, hard pipes and FMIC. Uprated ECU. Was putting out about 450 BHP. (According to the previous owner, but had about 180 mph out of it so believe him!!)

I've got a Mondeo Zetec S But it's ST200 rep now. ( Had to get rid of the toys when I decided to produce some offspring!! )
