as yet plans are on hold due to lack of funds. but i like the idea of a subtle street sleeper, you know the sort of car you pull up next to a porsche in and laugh at em... as they laugh at you..... hehe...
ummm basically i want it to look like a st220 but with a few personal touches. and eventually when money (and insurance company) allow. the 2.5 duratec engine will be wedged in!!!!! and i agree that touring car is schweet!!!
thanks for the welcomes... much apprecitated. better response than i got on the ford site!!! :S
 
well that sucks.. lol. so does a post count as one of these, or a new thread???? :S
bet your all thinking damn newbies... don't know anything... but i'll learn!!!!

Does this help at all?
 
If you use post reply go down past the text window and you'll see a button called "Manage Attachments" Click this and it will bring a little box up you can upload pics using this. Hope this helps.
 
finally, it worked, cheers. well here's a pic of my car. not much to look at and it now has a few scars thanks to some idiot with a headlight out playing at being a motorbike...........

Hello and welcome to TorqueCars, its good to have you along. Glad you sorted the image thing. The forum checks once an hour to see if people have over 10 posts and then it upgrades your account.

We welcome and are friendly to all newbies so feel free to ask any and as many questions as you like.
 
thanks for the welcome... it's always nice to know i'm actually appreciated on a site like this... i do have many questions about tuning and modifications. but at the moment money doesn't allow me to actually do anything to my car except run it... but as the money comes the modifications will follow. if anyone has questions they want to ask me i will do my best to answer....
i do have one question now though, if anyone knows a remedy for a sticking external door handle on the mk2 mondeo any help would be appreciate. it is only the n/s rear door, and the handle sticks when the door is opened and has to be pushed back in for the door to be closed, it is apparently a common fault on the mk2's....
cheers. olley

Have you tried a bit of wd40? Otherwise remove the handle give it a good clean and a little grease before you put it back on should also sort it.
 
not as yet, have heard many things from different people, but will give it a go. cheers. will let you know if it's successful.
