Rear shock mounting broke.
Clutch went at 113000 miles.
Lots of rust at the rear wheel arches and along the sills.
The inlet manifold gasket went. Had to be replaced for MOT.
The car is a really good car that never fails to start.
It goes quick enough for a 1.6 estate with 114000 miles on the car.
You have made the right purchase. Read my 1989 Montego Review, Dirt Cheap Set Of Wheels. We got 298,000 Miles out of ours.
Update on the review. After owning the Montego for seven long years turned out to be one of the best cars I have ever owned. RUST got the better of her and unfortunately she had to go the scrapyard. She drove to the scrapyard and she will be sadly missed.
Rust in peace BIG BUS.
