Hi mate.

Had a white 2003 few years back, great truck. Had a pulley upgrade and a good tune did pull well.

Sold it and got an srt-10 viper.

Bought my black 2003 about 4 years ago still running great. I get most of my parts from the states

goggle toutley ford great guys.

You can get most service parts here pretty easy.

Had a recall done on the fuel tank straps 2 years ago so if you look at one see if that's been done.

I find the chassis on them tends to have surface rust , nothing you cant sort out though.

Blower whine ,you gotta love that eh.

I got mine for 12k ,was offered that 2 odd years ago, not really checked the price recently but reckon it would get near that even now.

Use mine more than the other two cars I have .

Fuel, take it easy on a run, reckon 20 ish , hoof it about maybe 13 / 15 ,not really looked at that though.

Great fun at the lights biggrin

Maybe check my profile should be some threads about my truck on there, might have to go back a few years though.

Cheers bud, happy hunting.

I know of a perfect one for sale. Silver 2004.

Had some engine upgrades along with an aftermarket supercharger.

PM me for more details.

Great fun. Early ones blew plugs (my 2001 did it), the later model the better.

Bought my parts on US trips (US Customs were very suspicious of a pair of exhaust tips...), most UK Yank specialists can get you parts when they are putting their regular Stateside orders in
