Hi might you be willing to sell without going to auction ?

[flying_fatman69]

Hi,
I'm going to let the auction run its course rather than sell privately.
Whoever wins will be getting one of the best examples of a great car.

From a buyer's POV, if you've got a figure in your head for a private buy, why not bid up to that? You never know, you might end up paying less.

Fair comment mate thanks

Had an ST2 Mountune of the same era. Absolute giant killer on country B roads….especially in the rain. Slightly soulless ownership though coming from an inferior but characterful Abarth Punto Evo.

Absolutely right about the B roads, it's probably the perfect performance car for UK roads to my mind.

Ultimately, "It's a Ford", so there will always be more special cars around. BUT when it comes to servicing and running costs, "It's a Ford", so accordingly reasonable. Same with tyres, brakes, mods etc.

You can have a lot of fun without ever worrying how much it is costing, or might be going to cost you

Hi, can I take it that this is your car and it is yourself that has owned it from new? Regards Allan

Mk7 ST has a dry timing belt so no worries there
