Just rescued the silver ST150 from a local breaker yard, they phoned me up a few weeks back saying they have something I might be interested in. I went and had a look, pound notes were exchanged and they delivered it to me a few days later.
It had recently failed and MOT on a broken front spring, and insecure c.v.boot and the emissions were high on fast idle, that's it but it had loads of stupid advisories and the owner decided to scrap it. The car has done just shy of 45k.
I should have taken photos when it arrived but I was excited to get going with it. The car was green with moss and algae all over it, looks like it hadn't been washed for years. 2 of the side skirt jacking point covers and one half of the stone deflector on the front bumper were missing (all bits were still available from ford, but the interior was immaculate, almost like no one has ever sat in it.
A good jet wash, a couple of little scuffs sorted on the body work, machine polish and the repairs done, now it's back on the road.
It got a full milltek exhaust and sports cat(I think that's the reason why the emissions failed as it probably wasn't hot enough) and a mountune cais airbox and filter, Oz's were fitted by me while the original wheels are off getting a refurb
