Hi. I've just registered on this site - and what a great site it is too!!. I've read all the problem posts and am now fearing the worst . Got my 2.3 Scorpio Ultima Auto Estate ('98 R) a couple of weeks ago and went staight away on a 1,000 mile trip. Nice car, really easy motorway cruiser. I also own a '97 Ford Probe 24v - we have a similar website on www.fpoc.co.uk. No doubt will be looking for help sooner or later so good to see how much help there is. Regards John B.

Hi John B, Strangely, I am in a similar position to you. Same Car, same time of ownership. Just not the mileage. I was wondering what yoo thought of the fuel consumtion overall. I have to say I am very disappointed. I am begining to wonder if I should have bought a Cossie. Kind regards TaperOne

According to the computer just made the 32mpg over 500 miles - mainly 70mph motorway. Would have liked the cossie but trying to keep down the valve count in the fleet!! One V6 is enough for me .
