• Ford Mondeo - disposing a scruffy, uninsured car that runs 17 Feb 2014 (Forum)
  This also means I need to declare SORN on it to avoid trouble - this stuffs up a plan to keep it taxed and buy short-term insurance if anyone is interested. The old S reg Ford Mondeo starts, stops and runs beautifully, but is scruffy on the outside (rust and a dented door from being reversed into), has only 2 weeks MoT, tyres are coming to the end, may need some more welding and has a list of non-essential things that no longer work on it.

I went around to the passenger

• Ford Focus (1998 - 2004) - 00 1.8 rear wiper not wiping fully 25 Mar 2009 (Forum)
  When the rear washer was depressed the wiper would wipe across the window fully 5 times and then settle normally in the correct place but sometimes not. In searching I have found the most common fault is the relay?s, Ford Parts Centre insisted that this was the fault, I have changed both of the relays for the windows in the fuse box and still no difference. The next thing I changed was the rear wiper motor, this again made no difference.

• Ford Escort - Front designs of the Ford Escort (Mk6 1995)? 12 Feb 2020 (Forum)
  Same with the van model - almost all are numberplate at bottom but I found this one https://i.ebayimg.com/00/s/NzY4WDEwMjQ=/z/zb8AAOSwT9hcYXB7/$_86.JPG with grille at bottom instead. Even for cabrio I've found this anomaly https://live.staticflickr.com/3849/14535552692_2e95bf572e_b.jpg when literally 99% of other cabrio pictures show it with numberplate in the middle.
