Guest sancho Guests Posted 25/05/04 10:45 AM Posted 25/05/04 10:45 AM (edited) well I went out and bought one, second hand, 24k on the clock, blueprint auto, basic sound etc, and then a mate rings me up 24 hours later and offers me his phantom auto with premium sound and leather trim for only 2k more than what I paid for mineDOH DOH DOH DOH DOH DOHanyway, I only paid 38k for it. :lol: its nice, its quick..ish (ive owned a twin turbo VL for a while and it was bloody quick:)but, the night I parked it up at the house, the exhuast manifold gasket blew! Went to FORD today and they cant fix it for two weeks!! wtf! when I got home and looked under the bonnet, found a loose hoseclamp!and on the way home from where I bought it, I noticed a small diff whine at 80 - 90kays, and a bit of a "thump!" in the transmission!Have I bought a lemon?
