1998 Ford Mondeo TD Ghia review from UK and Ireland
"A luxurious family car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Diesel Injection Pump fault. The fuel was terribly leaking. Heavy black smoke and sluggish driving. Replaced with a pump from a salvage for £130.Not Bad as the new pump costed around £1200.
Pre-Combustion chamber worn out. Reconditioned and got it fitted for a cost of £500.
A crack in the rear bumper for an impact well below 2mph.
General comments?
Good luxury car for that kind of money.
Suspension is good, but bit stiff sometimes.
No starting problem at all.
Very effective air-conditioning system.
Zooms and floats on the motorway.
