It's very quiet.

I float by every now and then. No longer have the ST170.... clutch/Flywheel went for a 2nd time to traded it in while it still drove. Ended up with a R56 Mini Cooper S, it's been bloody brilliant. Also have a Puma which will be used for track days and autosolo's until the MOT expires and it will be replaced with.... possibly an R53 Cooper S.

I seem to remember it was halted by a phone box.... or was that before the 4wd conversion started?

Car or Wife? -
Cheers, he wants £270 for the engine and £130 for the ECU. Might go the ST170 route as they are £270 on ebay......i'll see what else comes up.

Perferably configured with 1.6 or 1.8 sump, flywheel etc. Must work and be deliverable.

Just over 10yrs old.... but a Ford Racing Puma, and Mk1 Focus RS's are probably not going to depreciate. Its really got to be something with a limited build number and a strong following now to hold or increase in value.

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281292131737 Clio 182, 43k on the clock. Why would you want to waste money on an engine for an escort when a car like that is only £2500.....

It's not just the paint work, its also what ever rots occured over the last 4/5yrs. The engine might be ok....but in reality will need some work... Tyres will be flat spotted, Brake discs will be corroded up. Calipers might be seized. -
I've had an ST170 for he last 7yrs. 30MPG is normal. £2k is a good price if it's had the clutch and flywheel replaced recently. If it hasn't had that...then walk away, infact run. Clutch and flywheel replaced will be about £1k, more if you go to a main dealer. 2004 is now 10yrs old so the cambelt should have been done/need doing. And the IMRC boxes like to die after 6yrs or so....£350. Other than that it's like any other 10yr old car, you'll be buying someones elses problems that they didnt want to fix. On a good note, mine is 11yrs old and the last MOT had the following Advisories Front Tyres worn on inside edge (causes by worn out trackrod end on passenger side, replaced before MOT) Stonechip to drivers side windscreen Stonechip to passengers side windscreen
