Will be sad to see it go but I just don't have the time for it and the same goes for most of my cars so I'm offloading pretty well everything and starting again. Btw, edit my company name

Take it from me, the end result of this will be pretty extreme! Mondeo sold earlier btw. Looks like I have agreed figures on the 500 too now..

Thanks guys, but just to put everyones mind at rest as well as everyone that's texted me... My motivation for selling isn't because of any return of cancer or health issues but simply because I don't have time to spend on all of my cars and I've made the decision that I want just two special cars, one is my Firenza....

Yes on the first line, for the foreseeable future future anyway.. Selling all the cars was a difficult decision to start with but once id decided it was happening it's easier than i'd have imagined..

Spill the beans? Take it it's nothing to do with cars?

EDIT to say just looked on the website!

Seems a good route to go down! Less stressful than engine building and mapping!

That's not strictly true, I had to invest in cnc machinery and tooling but less stress is correct!

I hope SO much that the Mondeo makes a decent return, IMO it's cooler than most normal Cosworths are.


Cheers,
