hi from Derbyshire

Nothing too serious so far then (unless you go to Ford for parts...).

Good luck, stick around, and hope she works out to be a good 'un.
 
Wheelbolts are easy enough, I'm sure most of us have got a few odd ones lying about. Sump pan shouldn't be too hard to come by, there's nearly always a couple of cars in the club being broken or you could try a scrappy (Looms' in Derby? https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&s...CZHP6PH3BhhCzV_NA&sig2=f6bMwgQDTZkFNVG8qcSMQw), remember a sump from a Mk2 Mondeo V6 is the same item and should be easier to find. Ditto for rear shocks; look for a breaker on here but Mk2 Mondy shocks will physically fit. Alternatively, Sachs shocks aren't megabucks brand new from Eurocarparts. I'd be amazed if you didn't sort your whole list for well under £200 and potentially a lot less.
