 My sister and b-i-l bought a new Vovlo 4 years ago, the little one, D2 or 3
Only done 16k in it. WBAC offered them only £1600 less than they paid initialy for it.
they have ordered a new VW T-ROC. Looked at a ex demo car. It was 3k more than buying new with exactly the same options on it. The down side is they have to wait until mid December for delivery

WBAC have upped their offer on the Mondeo to £640! 

£640 for a classic Ford sold in tiny numbers .......sheesh, what is the world coming to.

[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

Now then young Tigger......can't you get your dreary Mondeo to identify as an Escort Mexico.....Twin cam or RS1600.

They'll be less dismissive then.

even a base 1100 Escort is worth serious money. But it is at least 40 years old and rare. They are also built up by the reputation of the 'better' versions, which the Mondeo doesn't and will not get. Ford's marketing strategy still working decades after the car was sold? It's almost as if they knew what they were doing.

Many years ago I enjoyed a test drive in a Mondeo.

Can't quite recall now if it was an ST200, or ST220.

Pretty sure it was 3.0 litre, so probably the ST220

I remember it was very blue and quite fast, although it seemed to have poor torque at low revs.

I'll have you know my Mondeo is the rare and sought after 2.2TDCi Titanium X and it's clear to me that some spotty yoof at WBAC doesn't understand what he's looking at! 

You have to understand that it shares the engine with the Jaguar XF.....    Land Rover Freelander.....           and Ford Transit!

This......and the name TIT X  are enough to deter most sane people.

Diminishing returns I'm afraid.

Sell it.....go petrol, and save the polar bears.

For £9000 you could buy something you actually want to drive.

........and don't mention you get 7000 MPG from derv because I don't care.
