Title: 1997 Scorpio 2.3 Auto Ultima.
Post by exaktaman on Aug 21^st, 2012, 5:13pm

Hi all,
I'm having to part with 'Old Faithfull. It's MOT'd till May 2013 and taxed until end of September.
Colour is Samacand (Aubergine?) with a very nice Pumice interior - no tears or marks.
It has the usual rusting back arches and there are no baffles left in the silencer.

As posted on here in the distant past it has a slip in the 2nd to 3rd shift. I (and anyone well experienced in driving automatics) can avoid this slip by driving technique and I have done so for about 40k miles and it has got no worse. Other faults; temp gauge works only when it wants to and the bulb in the clock is out. Everything else works as it should, the engine is 'strong' it is still a very good drive.

The car gas had oil changes (Ford filter and oil) every 5k or so and has been generally well maintained and all necessary brake and suspension jobs done as soon as needed.

Oh, it is fitted with working back-up indicaters too!

£250 to drive away. Must go by this coming weekend.

Hi, Should have mentioned I have been advised that a sill or sills will need attention (welding?) for the next MOT. Sorry about that.
