dombanks Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 what can i do with my Nreg 130K V6 Mondeo? dont recon its worth much as its a mondeo, the V6 at best does 30mpg and there are faster cars out there for the money and mpg. some of the toys on it dont really work ie drivers heated seat/cd autochager back light/trip mpg computer back light/ and possibly the bigest problem is there is a cold fueling problem. difficult to expalian, simply put starts within 2 turnouvers every time, runs lumpy underload for 1/4mile untill slightly warm and then is 100%fine dont know what to do with it? donnor car for somehting? do you think anyone will want it and for what price, i'd be happy with it just covering the cost of tax/insurance of westy for a year. edt. asking cos a pikey skumbag knocked on the door asking if i wanted the old cars taking away which means they've had their eyes on it for a wile and noted its not moved and are looking to nick it.

RJD Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Hi Dom, I'm guessing you're NOT a used car salesman then a) Go banger racing in it b) Paint it bright f**king orange, stick a confederate flag on the roof, huge 01 on the door and stick it on ebay Quote
Hammy Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 take the radio out and Ebay it -junk the rest. Quote
Pilot Pete Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Strip it out, chop off the roof, the boot, take all the front end off, go drag racing. Quote
zoso Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Trackday it to death? Shouldn't take long, but would be a hell of a giggle... Quote
JeffC Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 track it/ abuse it them weigh it in, will make £160 weighing it in for scrap and £40 for the cat (if its got one) or better still if its got 2 Quote
Martin Keene Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 Trackday it to death? Shouldn't take long, but would be a hell of a giggle... Sounds like a plan. You can problem save 100kgs and make £100 by ebay the interior as well! Everyone's a winner... Quote
samcooke Posted April 18, 2008 Posted April 18, 2008 QUOTE runs lumpy underload for 1/4mile untill slightly warm and then is 100%fine Oxygen sensor not working? Chances are it's running lean for that time which won't have done it much good. Sell the V6 to SparkyB - he only needs one more for the hattrick. Quote

Move it to a neighbours or round the corner now - they'll be back very soon. Quote
dombanks Posted April 18, 2008 Author Posted April 18, 2008 yeah ill have to do something with it. track daying is a great idea and i've already considered that but he last one i did at oulton park i was the slowest car on the track (not so much a problem) and used at least 70L of fuel and got about 10mpg Quote
