Mmmmm not 100% sure i am pritty sure they were different sizes mondeo ones were wider and thinner i think, but they are really femma to swop over without breaking them i remember that much, as they turn really brittle after a few years on them..

And another thing i did was move the red line on the rev counter as the petrol mondeo clocks hit red at 6500rpm or something i used little red squares of red coachline to fill in the sections like the original to make the red line back down to 4750rpm my rev counter is still a petrol mondeo one like yours if you know what i mean...

Staggering renovation work, there. An inspiration to all of us, I think, well done :)

In a dillemma now, contemplating selling the van in exchange for a quad cab style pick up, mainly becouse its not getting used enough, its done less than 1500miles in a year, and its perfect for what i need it for but its sitting around too much, hence contemplating selling for a pick, yes a pick up is not as good as a race van but i can use it for work and stuff and to go out in at weekends....

So the question is whats it worth in realality any idea's there is no vat on it ethier as its a private van..

T350/125
81k miles
12m mot
6m tax
with PTO drive compressor, water heater, night heater etc etc...

if i were to advertise where should i value it ... 8)
