Regardless of what he said there's know need to start swearing to try and get your point across. I'm under the impression that your the person that will be opening the garage? If that is the case i certainly wouldn't take my car to you after seeing the way you've spoken to "jackocab", you would never see any of the well known traders/tuners on here speak to people in that way.

I wish you the best of luck with your new business venture, as far as your work is concerned its good, but i'd execpt nothing less if i was paying someone to do that.

You may have settled your differences, but LMFAO at this.

So being cheap makes them crap?

We don't all have thousands to spend on old Cosworths. Just because a car is cheap, doesn't make it any less valid. I've seen some lovely Mondeos, and some shit ones, just like I've seen lovely Cosworths, and plenty of shit ones. I don't think Cossies are immune to any of the problems listed for the Mondeo!

If I wanted a reliable, spacious car to get me about, that was still a decent drive, I'd buy a Mondeo, not a Cosworth. Horses for courses isn't it. Just because they're built for a different purpose, doesn't make them shit

Or am I forgetting the rules? Cos of course, unless it's a Cosworth, it's obviously shit

i had a mondeo and a cosworth and that made me happy,i could drive the mondeo around as it was reliable and worthless safe in the knowledge no body would steal it and use my cosworth for special occasions.

win win situation.
