Why I got myself a diesel Mondeo


My new job is 48 miles from my home, so driving the Q7 or the Jag was not a financially viable option. So I “borrowed” my dads dualfuel Vectra SRI for a few weeks and was happy that it only cost me £50 a week on LPG to get to work. But, its a Vectra and although only on 2002 plate it looked and felt tired so I baught an older Ford Mondeo Diesel in search of even better MPG!



I picked up the Y plate Diesel Mondeo for £1350.00 decent, drove it for a week and got decent MPG out of it. On the 2nd week the clutch kept getting stuck to the floor, so took it into my cousins garage in east london who said either the master or slave cylinder would need replacing, I can’t be bothered with the hassle so INstead I’m going to send it to auction, take me dad’s vectra off him and buy him a C class. Thats the plan we’ll see how it goes though!
