Default Bagged a bargain.

Well actualy a number of bargains, and a very nice drive out.

I saw an ebay auction for a Zetec fail to sell. So I made an offer and a sale was agreed. This was over in the nort east so not much of a trek. And then a fellow XR owners member put up for sale some other items I was interested in down in Richmond ( North Yorks ).

So I set out early evening in the sunshine to collect a 1.8 Zetec . The drive over he A69 was lovely.

Got to the 1st guy and I was expecting a fairly mankey looking 1.8 Zetec. But instead Found a clean looking Blackto with anciliaries , loom, ecu and keys for £40 Chuffed.

Then I went to richmond and picked up a good genuine RS Option kit for my Sierra 4x4, also £40 a real bargain!.. and then a lovely drive home.



The Zetec is to be the post IVA power plant..

TT
