Not familiar with Mondeos at all myself, but from reading on here, I believe the 1.8TDCi uses what are known as "wet belts", where the timing belt is replaced by 2 belts, 1 of which is immersed in oil. Maybe somebody with more knowledge on them can fill in the gaps here?
Is it the 1.8 diesel version only?

Yes 2.0 best option.

1.8 as you say has 2 belts and need looking after. Costly too.

New shape petrol Fiesta with NCT til February 2021, €1950

Looks decent in the pictures. Must be one of the very first of this shape being 08

Tidy looking diesel A6 with nice spec. NCT til December, €1500

These are a lovely car in this spec (final edition). Same owner for the last 13 years, claims of recent timing belt and service. Could be a nice buy if it checks out

I actually posted that 2 weeks ago and was full sure it would sell quick especially with the low mileage and work carried out on it. Surprised it hasn't sold and they haven't dropped the price either

I was in Galway today and contacted the seller to view this car, he responded "sorry not today, the Saab will be available from next week only." Quite odd given that's it's been up for over 2 weeks and you'd imagine he'd be keen to sell. I think there's something fishy about it.

Could be car in regular use not available to view at short notice.

Could be anything or nothing really.

No need to overthink it, if you have a bad hunch from the phonecall skip that one and look elsewhere.

Nice looking 205 with NCT til March 2021, new tyres and a load of recent work, €1350

Could be an interesting runaround if bought for a grand or so

Sold my 1st car at 17 and it was a 106 same colour..... Was also a 96....

I hadn't even a car licence... Didn't drive any I sold till I had.

That yoke is giving me flashbacks to my first car as well, a silver 1996, 106 as well. Had that coded immobiliser in it!

That is pretty cheap surely, given the rarity, love for them and its condition.

26000 Elephants · 15-07-2020 09:14AM

That's the best thing posted here, or in the classic thread, in a while. That passenger door would need to be pulled, or it my crappy phone again?

Either way, that's an excellent find Duke. I'd love it.

I've just taken ownership off a 97 one. 13 years idle parked in a warehouse.

1 litre 4 speed, NCT til January 2021, tax til October, €1000

Both ads are night and day in terms of presentation. Its amazing what a little bit of effort can do when it comes to this.

Mad_Mike · 15-07-2020 12:58PM

That 205 won't hang around for long at that money
Looks in great nick considering it's age, but also looks like it's just a very well presented honest car

HA!

Mine had no power steering either as it happened. That teaches ya lots wrt parking dynamics.

I decided to stay in the rough bangernomics territory after my two years with my Bravo, which I secured from here, and went for a 2010 Saab 9-3 1.9 TID 150!

Just slightly above the bangernomics budget but very well kept for the price, with everything done from the clutch/flywheel to the alternator.

I see what boardsies were saying though, its a lot of car for their value. Only downside is there are no nice soft touch plastics like on VW/Audi etc.

Like others, I shall update on the, or lack thereof, breakdowns/repairs!

Not an Aero and just above bangernomics territory, but it could be brought down a bit. This is a carbon copy of the one I bought really.

2008 Mazda3 1.3 petrol. Taxed until 05/21, nct just done and valid until 09/21.

Strong price, but could be cheap motoring.

Not a big fan of the design, but with that mileage it could be subject to a bit of haggling and relatively cheap motoring for a year. Should be insurance friendly, too.
