Good luck with the insurance - you'll need it! Infact, the insurance will almost certainly be more than the car is worth.

My old man has a ford mondeo - had it since '98 and it's never let him down once, it's still got the original break pads [70% worn at last service], still got the original exhaust, it's only had one new battery, the suspension is still fine - and he drives like me - a nutter.

And my escort is the same, the only problems i've ever had with my escort van was a battery that wouldnt hold it's charge - and technically that's the battery, not the cars fault.

The big van i've got, the transit has only had the exhaust changed once, break pads twise, and cam belt.

I dont know how good Ford is in the states, but over here in the UK they're one of the most reliable makes - and i've never had any kind of problem with em what so ever.

For some reason i decided to attach a pic of my ford racing coat.
