Just had a good read through this thread and the car looks soooo good now, colour coding the door handles and mirrors and subtle things like this is just the kinda thing i like to do and the 125bhp is a nice little power figure for it, just can't believe how cheap it is to tax lol!......... nicely done chap

[RS rob]

thanks steve,

I'm chuffed with it, only thing I might change is a few bits in the interior
front seats, headlining and pillar trims trimmed in black suede

The mk6 looks mint and really looks great . Do you know the part numbers for the door mouldings and locks handles.

i dont mate sorry, long time since then

if your worried about your local parts dept being a bit dull,
just give them the registration plate of an ST150

there can only be around 10 parts advisors in the country that actually know how to look parts up

the rest of them seem to have a bad reputation

[jonyb4]

spose you two are one of them then?

helps when your actually interested in fords generally,

that they just fax diagrams to nearly every trade customer??

[snakeyjake]

that wasnt very polite

[snakeyjake]

Well they got taken over they stitched my family up as I thought I'd still have trade price and I meant that garage is expensive and always has been really.

[rst-steve]

People often say about having problems getting bits from Ford and them looking them up on Microcat etc............. i never usually have any issues getting parts tbh, my main problem with my old Series 1 was getting told "nahhhh, can't get that anymore"

Managed to get the bits i needed in the past for the Fiesta

i only give maximum 10% trade discount if ppl prove they are in some sort of trade.
Companies who spend alot with us tend to get 20% max

ford parts prices have gone up 4 times last year alone. So now with vat going back up expect them to rise again in april.

Looks very nice Rob!

[RS rob]

thanks lads

[jonyb4]

love it, nice place, sounds like theyre mimicking bush gardens in Orlando

cant believe you got almost 600miles to a tank!

[RS rob]

thought it was due an update,

i decided to change the mondeo 300mm calipers for the st170 calipers
as there is a better choice of brake pads such as ferodo ds2500's
got hold of a brand new set on ebay

new st170 caliper next to the mondeo caliper



obviously not a major difference really, but they came with brand new ford brake pads
which will do for now before i decided on what uprated pads to have

[rsturbonutter]

Nice to see you online fella.Are they much lighter than the Mondeo one's rob. And hows the red beast coming on

[knuckles]
