Well he made classic ford fine was really pleased with the steady cruse there and back, I may of even spoken to a few of you I had several conversations over the weekend about it. Still loads to do but it was great to get out and actually use it instead of laying underneath it ☺

As I said to Andy I'm happy with what it is and how it drives in fact it adds to the experience that it is still standard and I'm quite happy to plod about but I do need tho iron out the few issues I've had last year main one being the hot starting.

I see you have the apprentice on the job! It's so refreshing to see somebody who buys a classic and wants to keep it that way, instead of wanting to turn it into a Mk6.

Such a great thread, hope Eric finds a way to behave himself and you get the reliability you're after, that seems to be the hardest bit

I do like to see the old stuff standard I've got to admit. Fingers crossed we have a good year with him this year my lad made all the effort getting it back on the road worthwhile last year just hope he enjoys it as much this year 😀

Nuffink wrong wiv Mk 6's Apart from what they look like. And the DMF. And some being wrong wheel drive. And the bolt on the pulley. And the stupid cables that operate the gearbox. Need I go on? Sorry thread hijack.
