Next up the car. It's a 2.0 LX with 117k on clock. I thought an LX was low spec but this seems well equipped with electric driver height adjustment,4x electric windows,electric mirrors,variable intermittent wipers and air con which surpassingly still works.
The previous owner had it for about 3 years covering not far off of 50 thousand. He's had all new shocks,springs fitted,brakes,handbrake cable and a clutch in his ownership. Only selling it as his company have provided him with a 63 plate diesel insignia. I'd have refused and kept the Mondeo to be honest. It's got a cracked rear bumper (quelle surprise) but he's got another bumper I can have FOC but need to collect it from Sutton. Drives really nice,can't hear the engine at all and it's smooth as Frank Sinatras voice. It's very comfy and rather on the large side which is probably going to be an issue doing deliveries but it's make do with best I could get for not alot of money.
The pickings were slim for a limited budget within 60mile round trip. The options were a transit connect with high mileage and a noisy engine for 200 quid more, numerous chavved up cars being sold in Sheffield with the car parked literally on someone's front lawn or the Mondeo. I chose the latter. Doesn't clean up too bad after a wash either.
