Hi all. There is a real possability that 'The Fridge' will be up for grabs after the Harewood show  . The sad reality is i can no longer afford to run it as my weekly commute has risen from 80 miles per week to just under 200 !!!. As hard as i try i just cant squeeze 200 miles out of £30 worth of fuel ( most of my driving done in an urban enviroment ). It has MOT till the middle of January & Tax till August. Full service history (14 stamps ) 12 of which were main dealer. Mileage is around 142k ( drives like 42 !!! ) . Added extras include , wood rim wheel, wood face rds 7000 head unit with the famous 'matt clay' Blue display , 17" alloys with good boots, plus a little bit of colour coding. So there ya go. Not too sure how much i want for the old gal & TBH i would like to replace her with a Scorpio diesel. Any questions...Fire away & im sure there might be a couple of pictures tucked away in the threads of this site to have a look at until i get my camera working / replaced. Thanks guys & gals... Craig

Hi Len. It's a 98 Facelift estate in WHITE . Ultima spec & in fine condition. The only additions it dosent have is reverse sensors & puddle lights ( the latter was never fitted to the facelift cars anyway ). Minor dent in the lower lip of tailgate ( opened the boot whilst still in the garage ). A few insignificant marks to the body, but you really have to look for them  The only pther fault is the rear o/s electric window is not working at the moment, but should be sorted by the weekend. Have a look at the Sandwell show photos... Mine is the only white one there. Also look for a thread titled '17" alloys'.....or something like that. If anyone has any resent pics could they help me out a bit :-x. Cheers... Craig

& here's me having just sold my 1998 diesel estate.
Now I only live 2 miles from work & cycle in, I'm seriously thinking of getting a cossie as a weekend car.
What sort of price do you have in mind?

Aaahhhh Rob. Thats typical. A diesel estate would of suited me down to the ground. TBH i have no idea what i want for it. To me it's priceless,but i know i have to be realistic. There isnt really anything for sale that i can compare it to so setting a price is difficult. Think i will let the general opinion of the Harewood crowd set the standard

Hi Rich. The steering wheel was actually offered as an optional extra for the scorpio, but was so expensive not many people ordered it !!! I was fortunate enough to get the wheel from Bernie ( from scorpio unleashed ) who removed the wheel before he sold his car. I wont say how much i paid for it though ( just incase the wife logs in & has a look ) . Len... P.M. sent m8. All the best ...Craig
