14th car while i still had the estate - running, i bought a 2.0 l 4x4 mondeo for £50 - it had a noisy gearbox apparently, but i found the cause of the noise - heat shield tapping the front diff when the car was moving it has Rocket ship miles on its original engine 280,000 miles, bought it to strip the running gear out for my V6. couldn't use it thou, V6's rear precat was in the way for the front diff
