1995 2.0 16v Ultima auto
mot mid oct 2012
113k
£500 ovno
Im not going to bore everybody with the spec but we all know what ultima's have & havent got ...but it hasnt got parking sensors or headlamp washers 
Everything seems to work ok inc the climate control boot cd changer skips somtimes but i will include another one
bodily its very good with no obvios rust on the sills or arches .
The paintwork looks ok but is 16 years old and in places there are very minor scratches/scuffs the bumpers are not cracked
the only bad part is the laquer peeling on the roof
interior is in very good condition heated electric leather with manual adjust passenger seat
the engine runs very well and i have just replaced the top loom
the autobox changes gear fine
red key & 2 black keys
handbooks
some history and old mots
please excuse my poor photos but at least theres non of my thumbs

No nice pics. 
What's the colour?
Can I just mention the 2L 16V may not seem exciting but is a good all round motor, got the sensible alloy inlet manifold and, being '95, the "better made" earlier version body shell.

I can confirm it is blue and looks very good as I saw it about a month ago. I seem to remember that it was in very good condition inside as well.

Know what you mean, but strangely, Lincs countryside, at least fens area, is still noticeably different. Well to me.
Whenever I drive up here there's always this "a-ha! Now we're definitely in the fens" moment.

Sound like too good to break  but you probably get more for it that way (?)

I think its a case of a lot of people these days are afraid of big cars and how much its going to cost to run even though a 2.0 Scorp cost less to run than a 2.0 mondeo

Pretty much I guess, apart from being old as well, wouldn't make sense unless you're specifically a fan

What a shame to see this car go for breaking. Have you started to break it yet? If you weren't so far away I'd be considering it for a mate of mine or myself as I have a 2.3 the same colour.

It is a shame but its sat around for 5 months of the mot , ive had a few people look at it but they all wanted to pay less for it than i could easily get for the diff . I havent started breaking it yet .
The sad fact is At the moment i could sell the diff remove the cat and the alloys weigh them in followed by the rest of the car and beat my asking price for the whole motor .
