Default ST24's Rare?

Just wondering how rare people think mondeo mk2 ST24's are? I know ST200 mk2 are rare'r, but when i search on ebay for ST24's theyre never seems to be more than 30 - 40 on there, and the majority of them are either fucked, shitters, or no tax/mot , very rare you see one with full service history and decent tax and MOT ?

See the one i have, has 120k on the clock, 10 month MOT 5 month tax, full ford service history, wad of reicepts and original bill of sale , 2 owners, in fairly clean condition, but when i did sell it ( twice i got fucked around on ebay ) it went for the price on average other ones were going for which were in worse condition and or with shorter tax and MOT ? mine owes me about £950 but i doubt id get more than £750 for it (early 1999 model) standard too bar smoked headlights.

i can do about 35 miles on a fiver motorway but round town itl do 20 at a push.. seems to be more economical when its abused aswell. weird thing. 2 weeks ago i was getting 65 mile to £20, then the 2 weeks after i got 85 and 92 to £20 all from putting £20 when it was sucking on bottom of the tank same price fuel. Its gone shitty again now, which is off because it does the same journeys, same roads and similar driving styles week in week out :/

Sold mine for £1450 a few weeks ago - FSH with 87k on the clock, a few choice mods, and it was a good'un. So it is possible; you've just got wait a bit until you find someone who appreciates them for what they are and really wants a nice one.

I'm thinking of selling mine, but then decide for the money I'll get for it, can't think of anything else I'd rather have.

I am indeed him, but the bumpers on eBay aren't mine if they're the ones I've seen - mine was S984CAV and that one's S759CAV mine's actually been spotted running around East Sussex, so I'm pretty sure it's still going!

Thanks
