Cheers TDCIGHIA will have that race now :mrgreen: i hope it works out too as im getting less and less forgiving as the months go by :x Ortho :fadein:

Dont think dealer was gonna be that generous with his Mk2 offer ,although i will have a - 2.0- Black- 3 door -17s-i have taken it just" Mk1" :mrgreen: Ortho 0X

Offerd Mk 2 but just isnt my cuppa ,nice inside but deadly dull outside looks like a shrunken squashed Max 8) Ortho :mrgreen:

Hi all as you will know i had to reject my 2.0 TDCI max as it was just very faulty ,any way the replacement a Foci hatch TDCI has given me even more grief so this has been rejected back to Ford dealer ,i am now turning my back on the darkside in favour of a 2.0 Focus Edge in Panther black 3 door with all the bells and whistles yum yum. The Ford peeps also said that the C Max was having to have lots of warranty repairs for faulty ECUs and creaky dashes and seats :shock: Ortho 8)

P.S not in the gay sense mind

Thanks for the Tip mick may as well be comfy wilst wupping * * * * :mrgreen: Ortho :mrgreen:

My God gonna burn my Foci now as it seems there is no hope for the poor little blighter :shock: think ill get a Citroencayennepug407cmaxvolvos40 GTI TDCI ST PDI and have the best of all worlds :lol: anybody gonna race with that baby, even you Topscal in your ST TDCI Gonna pull some chops now as im pretty narcked by all this C Ya Ortho :|

Ok i will bow to your knowledge and knowhow ,didnt realise the Mondi had that much torque :oops: but i can get 0-60 in 9 secs so not far away plus it handles pretty well with the larger dia wheels. Not sure about top speed still running it in! P.S whats wrong with Fords own TDCI engines,more reliable than the PAS units, a proven engine on the reliability front ,PAS yet to prove itself on that count Ortho :mrgreen:

Power to weight ratio may come into play in this instance Topscal, Mondeo v heavy Focus Hatch a lot lighter C ya ortho :mrgreen:

Topscal i am sooooooo jealous id love one of them ,great looking moter as well, but have just added a Tunit box and 17s to my Foci, dynoed at 132bhp so the odds are perhaps more even than you anticipated 8) Focus,s have nice rears though! Cya at the races cheers Ortho :mrgreen:

tee hee 8)

Yes i noticed TDCI, flip over to the ST forum an interesting argument about the Foci hatch TDCI being quicker than the ST170 :shock: and to answer your query regardin the max having an advantage in the wind ,nope big disadvantage crosswinds ya see like a van ho ho :mrgreen: Ortho :|

Wasnt windy that day TDCI 8) it was sunny 8) Ortho :mrgreen:

Hi mate the knob of the new Mondeo 2.2ST TDCI fits straight on the Max and looks fab 30 quid from dealer on net Cheers Ortho
