Does anyone else know anything about this car? It sounds interesting, but the OP appears to have gone MIA.

QuoteTough call Guy. Your beast really is such a good example, don’t know how you can let it go!No chance Ian. As well as a Mig i need a classic car. No point in having two Migs. I love the Consul, she's being sprayed soon (4 new doors) & then ready for next years shows. I'm as equally involved in the classic car/steam rally scene as i am Migs so no chance of selling her.
Can’t you sell the old Ford and have the beasties bigger brother?
She's a joy to drive, seats 6 legally with front bench seat. 3 speed column change with handbrake beneath the dash, no seatbelts ever fitted (pre 1965 & she's a Jan 1961 so 49 years old in the new year) Not selling!
Still up for a spring Yorkmeet, caravan is due some use!!!!
Must be better than the '59 Lowline Zephyr I had, which appeared to be built out of bean cans, whereas the previous motor, a '54 Consul, was built like an Omega! Machined out of a solid lump. 8-) 8-) 8-)

Far nicer to drive than that crappy, horrible, nasty Focus I've had all week
Evening!
A good time was had I trust? :-?
I hadn't realised Mothercare was on your 'To loot' list.

Changed the wishbones on the TD, and as any TD owner knows, the pax side rear bush bolt is a pita due to the two rubber pipes usefully positioned just above the bolt head ensuring maximum difficulty in fitting the socket on the head!

I did reverse into a brand new VW Passat about 3 years ago in mine, I got out.VW had smashed headlight, cracked/split bumper and a bent bonnet, damage? £2.5k's worth!
Damage to mine? Hairline crack in bumper
I have a feeling that the front of cars have to be 'crumple' zones, but maybe not the rears? Anyone know different?

Hi Emma, I have had a TD Estate for 12 years, and the only problem I've had is having to change the wishbones. I like the car so much I've recently bought a 3.2 Elite saloon. Of course both mine are autos, as they should be.
Best wishes with your purchase, and there is an excellent 2.5 Estate for sale on the OOF site at present.

I looked for the confessional page on this forum, but couldn`t find one
Anyway, bless me farther for I have recently committed the following cock-ups
During an oil change last weekend I dropped my new vaux oil filter into the old oil
I drove off from filling up this morning without replacing my petrol cap.
I completely forgot about the MOT test until I tried to renew the car tax at the end of Aug. (9 weeks out of date).
I reversed out of my driveway and ran over our posties bicycle ( I`ve been told to expect the bill soon).
And here`s the biggy..... I piled all my tesco shopping into the boot (which for some reason I left up) & the car refused to un-lock and let me in. A somewhat upset and unknown toddler screamed blue murder from the back seat as I tugged and pulled at the drivers door.
I took the cowards way out and quietly walked off, without my shopping to look for my car
Beat that if you can??
Pretty good, especially if you survived it all!
