Current customer rating: (247 votes ) based onBeautiful car in Mercury Grey.
Bodywork:Stunning looking car with no areas of rust whatsoever that I can see. There are a couple of very minor 'car park dings' on the passenger door that you can only see when you look along the bodyline. The body takes an incredibly nice shine. There are a couple of bubble spots on the black window trim/seals but from what I understand is quite common and can be easily replaced. Underneath is very solid and has been waxoyled/treated. There are a couple of minor areas that have been welded near the sills but these have been professionally done and properly treated. I would emphasise that this car is solid looking underneath and is very clean.
Interior:Completely original interior. Original Ford radio. no holes or cracks in dashboard. the back seat looks like it's never been sat in. passenger seat excellent. drivers seat has minor wear on bolster and slight sagging on right hand side of base (by no means ruined and just pretty much what you'd expect with age). Carpet nice and clean. Only thing I can raise is the speedo has the beginning of the common 'paint starting to flake' issue but only on the higher digits. All electrics work as they should.
Mechanicals:Engine starts first time every time. even after it has been sat for a while. There are no puffs of smoke whatsoever either on start up or acceleration. The engine has no rattles. squeaks or knocks and purrs away like a happy cat! There was an mot advisory a few years back regarding blue smoke upon revving but this must have been corrected with an engine rebuild as I said there are no signs of this whatsoever. I have fitted new front discs and pads. refurbished the original alloys and it has 4 new matching Pirelli P6000 tyres. The spare is a matching alloy with a Dunlop tyre. possibly the original? All front lights are the original 'carello' lights. One spot light has some corrosion inside but I have replacement spotlights I will supply with the car.
Overall. this is an incredibly nice car with a history and ownership that I have never seen before. I think it is a fantastic investment opportunity as these Fords are increasing in value.
Car is located in Whitburn. West Lothian. approx 15 miles West of Edinburgh. Please call me on 07943 366419 to arrange viewing or to discuss the car further. No time wasters please.
