Have just picked up a diesel ultima 98 with 80k from ebay

Drives nicely with a few quirks to be resolved over coming weeks.

Strangely it pulls like train up to about 2500 rpm then absolutely nothing from there until about 3500 rpm.

One of the very best things is that it is in Java a colour that I love and in diesel terms is pretty well fully loaded, all it needs is a Ford park sensor system!

Try his Site (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/CAR-REVERSING-REVERSE-PARKING-4-SENSOR-KIT-LED-DISPLAY-/190274848682?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2c4d43c7aa) for reversing sensors. Simple to fit. Very accurate. :)

;D Thought had never occurred to me GOZZ

Must admit bio-diesel at about £1.05 is cheaper than the fuel bill for the 2.9
