"Ahhh a 10 mil spanner" 😮 show off!

Nice comment

It doesn't have ABS brakes, but it does have ABS calipers........is this an Alfa in disguise? 🙂

Nice fleet, really after a T-Series Turbo, would you be interested in selling the 620Ti?

Fleets looking good bro, 👍

Excellent review 👏

What would you rate the difficulty of the change out of 10

Just bought one HDI 100,000 miles, the last diesel sports car, very collectable,

Good luck with the works for Sept. The rear beam, bushes, spindles, bearings etc are all actually mk3 golf as well. I've just rebuilt my corrado vr6 and found part numbers were identical. Ive also rebuilt a mk3 and mk2.

Hopefully see you and the VR6 in September, I’ll be in my MK1 Mondeo if I can’t get anything else running lol

mpg on a trip / overall?

Just came across your channel and what raised my interest was the videos on your Jaguar XF petrol which I think you no longer own?. I have a the same petrol engined XF with the same colour combination although mine is a 2010 and just the Luxury spec so less goodies than yours. The 3.0 V6 petrol XF was fairly rare and I think Jaguar deleted the engine late 2010, the engine had been used previously in the S Type, X Type and the previous model XJ. I have had mine eight years, it took me ages to find the right one and had to go to Newcastle to buy it - about 220 miles from my home! I entirely agree with all your comments about the car. I love the interior - much nicer then the Mk2 XF & XE's IMO. Its very comfortable and refined, and a great long distance cruiser. Mine has been pretty reliable too - its had a new fuel pump and I have recently replaced the boot wiring harness which is a common fault. The rest has just been routine maintainance - did the spark plugs 18 months ago which was a PITA as the inlet manifold has to come off - took me hours but got there in the end! Agree with you about fuel consumption - it has a bit of a drink problem and is at its best on long motorway drives! Don't get me started on the VED!! I have just taxed mine which cost £675 this year😡 I think this "highway robbery" started in 2006 at a time when the Government was pushing people to buy diesels - how times change eh? Even though diesels have now been discredited in many ways the Govt are never going to review the rates for petrol engines like the XF as they don't want to lose the revenue! I tend to console myself by saying that my sort of driving - lots of short distances wouldn't suit a diesel. As you point out the diesel engine XF's even the later 3.0V6's suffer from a number of serious issues such as blocked dpf's, oil dillution and egr valve problems, so whilst I am paying extortinate road tax I have avoided the big repair bills that can occur in fixing the diesel engines. I do toy with replacing my XF with something more resonable to tax probably a later petrol engine Jag, but I still very much like my XF even after eight years, so the positives continue to outweigh the negatives for me so far! I think partly due to the VED my XF isn't worth that much now and I would be reluctant to let it go for peanuts! So my ownership of an XF remains under review but as yet no clear decission about which way to go with it. I enjoyed your videos of your Jaguar XF there is very little written about the engine version - loads on diesels though. Whilst I think you owned yours for a much shorter time your ownership experience and impressions seems to have been similar to mine which is great to see. Thanks👍

Nice spec, isn't it supposed to have under bonnet insulation?

Can you tell the tool you used for the filter? Having a hard time myself

I have just bought a 2003 MG ZT-T 180 in Typhoon for the same reason. It was exactly the colour, speciation & model I wanted & I knew if I didn’t buy one reasonably soon they would spiral into silly money. I allocated £1000 on top of my purchase budget to do work on it because the seller was quite honest about its battle scars & in my first week I’d spent £1150. Mine also needs the engine mount doing, I’ve had the same issue on one of my Rover 75’s. Upon collection I drove it two miles to the tyre garage to have a full new set of tyres fitted & it pissed several litres of it’s freshly filled full tank of V-Power petrol on the floor when they jacked it up. Problem was an aftermarket fuel pump with an incorrectly fitted seal so it’s had an OEM pump fitted. I do believe the seller was unaware of the issue since he ran it on about 1/3 of tank on short local runs in Birmingham. So on the long drive home I got 20mpg which is bad even for a 180 but since it was done that has jumped to 26mpg about what I expect. Likewise my car is expected to earn it’s keep but it gets to share the burden with a 75 Tourer & saloon so it’s not a full daily. I’d rather see a car daily used but well maintained than a garage queen. I’m not a mechanic but I’ve already fixed some minor issues myself like the boot gas struts & I tidied up some cosmetic issues on my high mileage example. It’s had an airbag light fixed, the already mentioned fuel pump & a full set of premium tyres plus a good second hand one on the spare. Overall I want to ‘save it{ since high mileage ones end up scrapped & all my cars have high mileage but are well maintained. Yes the belts have been done with evidence in 2020 & only 4000 miles since. I also picked up two sets of VIS motors from DMGRS on offer at £65 a set Christmas 2023 since both my 75’s are V6 as well. I’d love to see an update on this car here on KZbin & if you attend POL or the Monogram show on July 21st it would be great to get the Typhoon’s all together for a photo opportunity. Keep on labouring these cars need true enthusiasts to stay on the road. Oddly mine is ULEZ compliant as is one of my 75’s, it’s a completely random lottery of what figure was entered on the logbook at registration. I’ve uploaded a very brief walk around of my ZT-T on my channel. I’ll do a better video once the remaining work is complete (engine mounts cruise control).

Thanks for the video, it's just happened to my RCZ Hdi today, did they replace the other 3 injector seals as well?

Great meaty sound

Ive been meaning to get the model with the beige leather seats, i just dont know how or where. Is this a limited version?

A shame I have only seen this video now, I would have bought your RCZ. I have bought one today and should be collecting later this week. 2.0HDi too and I take note of your advice and issues, thank you!!

That hideous dent at 4.27 is mad. Did the owner honestly think he was fixing it?

The Mk1 Super Minx used the VN.

I just remembered how much I love my 620ti

Is it reliable after 100000?

I mean....it's a Peugeot man..... The dasigner/s should have gone to another company with their idea. It would have beeen a hit!

I absolutely love the Peugeot RCZ very unusual sports car that stands out love the bubble roof I definitely want to get one when I become a first-time driver anyway great video and great information

Got a 156bhp pearlescent white one 9 years old mint condition one lady owner full service history. 73k miles. The negative opinions on them i accepted as theres plenty of other cars out there with similar issues. So far fingers crossed its been great and will keep it serviced yearly no messing arpund. I can relate re anxiety i had a ton of it from my 1 series which was nothing but trouble

Good cars the mondeos are

My granddad had an N reg i was never keen on the next modle up am on the modle that was a bit like the vectra but i do like the other mondeos now theve discontinued them and the fiesta and in 2 years time the focus is going to be discontinued

I consider it an amazing car, even by the looks and power per £ i’d agree it’s one of the best looking car in it’s price range. Looking into getting 1.6Tp 200BHP version. Love the review.

First time I'm glad I have the non-turbo version. The filter is super easy to remove! It's next to the dipstick.

Broo me to i have a r21 from morocco

1.7 ?

Hi, beautiful car is your corrado OBD2 swapped ?

thank you

My father had the exact same car N reg 1995 1.8 mondeo great car

I had a K reg 1.6LX and a 2.0 Ghia on an M plate. Both purchased second hand and both suffered sticky engine valves. People used to put the wrong viscosity oil in apparently. Zetec needs 5w30 so I was unfortunate to suffer twice from previous owners lack of oil knowledge! In general though, I enjoyed driving them. Superb handling and a lovely ride. Yours is a beauty👌

Theres a boot open button just below the boot under a lip, I love my RCZ but just one thing annoys me, the boot is big but there's a compartment under the boot lid that reduces the hight of what you put in, not sure what this compartment is, maybe where some of the electronics are??...

They are good cars i have of them and there is a big mondeo mk1 mk2 group in the uk if you sell it someone there will buy it i think if ever for sale

The Renault 21 is a rare beauty, would love to see a lot more about this car! Pity I missed it at FOTU..

Are you sure that car isn't a 1994 model?

I don’t believe the leak off pipe is reusable as there are very small o-rings fitted but you do have to be very careful with removal and refitting as it is a bit fiddly. I’m glad you have your car all sorted and working better than ever buy the sounds of things.

I think you need a musical score to match the opening graphics......

Got a onyx red 2010 mod. Great car. 60000 km on the clock. Using her as a daily car . Great handling on snow and icey roads . Going to keep her for many years to come

How about doing a video of that lovely Rover 3600

That looked jolly hard work

On the SD1 you can put a jumper wire across the pins of the oil pressure sensor. That'll make the pump run when the ignition is on. That might help in the diagnosis.

Ooh the SD1 this Mk1 example looks absolutely awesome. My dad had 3 SD1’s, 1st a Mk1 then 2 Mk2’s all V8’s & brand spanking company cars. For a lot of people this is a car in the day they would of loved to own, but couldn’t. Now is there chance to own such a fantastic classic. Well done 👍

My Singer Gazelle uses the Zenith VN. I thought the Super Minx used the IZ?

I had one of these but then i got another one with dogleg doors which i like the look of must better than the square shape.Great little classic's.Mine was a auto 1965 the other was a manual 1964.Lovely little weekend drivers.
