- I take my ford Mondeo Mk3 ST220 to the car cleaners and get a valet. I then tackle the broken glove box handle and see if there are any remnants of mice living in there.

Mk3 Mondeo is the best generation of Mondeo, in my opinion. Our old one went on for years and was used for the dog and any dirty jobs like trips to the tip. We paid £900 for it, and it felt solid, comparable to anything German. Amazing value.
Yes I agree 👍
Agreed. I’ve had mk2, mk3, mk3.5, mk4, mk4.5. I always remember Ford trumpeting that the mk4 was cheaper than the mk3.5 - but TBH you could feel it was a cheaper car.
@stevenwesthead636 I had an early mk4 2.5T. It was a beautiful engine (a 5 cylinder turbo charged petrol Volvo engine), but it was clear Ford were broke when it developed and produced the mk4. Everything was so flimsy compared to the mk3.
I never take my car to these kind of places, they use acids that destroy your alloys and I've had many a time my car has been scratched when they use their squeegies to wipe the water off. The last time was when they blew off my fuel filler flap on my Mercedes coupe with the jetwasher, all they offered was to glue it back on with tape and a free wash. Never again.
What a beauty I bought an ST 150 Tdci in 2005 and had it for seven years and sorry I sold it a great car
Just a suggestion when you take the head to be skimmed ask them if they can get you a set of piston rings
Good call!
There was no ST150 TDCI
Enjoy watching your repair videos watching from South Africa
Martin as you love Mondeo we have a 02 zetec for sale. Silver colour, working, drive's well, just been MOT. Just surplus
Can't wait for the the Regal Resto. 👍
Can’t beat a good tinker lol 😂the ol Mondeo looks mint buddy 😊
I use to work at a Nissan and Honda dealership detailing, and it was always great to see the finished results of your efforts, were I live in Aussie a full detail is up to $400. I still detail on weekends taking up to 6 hrs a car 🤠😎💯❗
your ford looks very good , i love car cleaning , loved watching martin
I personally don't like going to car washes like that as I prefer to do it myself which I have few days ago I wash mine with 3 buckets grit guards snow foam etc I also have a mondeo mk3 st but the tdci version it seems to be a trend at moment where people just complete you on it mine is a black st I've had it 6 years now
Looks great Martin as for the glove box they are prone for it as i have had loads of Mondeo and because it is common thing to happen they charge for it on eBay even at my local scrap yard they had all been taken out 👍👍👍👍
Scratch n shine no thanks!
My mate took his scooby sti to one of these and they put an apple tracker on it and the police traced it back to the car wash.
Mondeo looks fantastic mate. Looking forward to your future videos. Enjoy your time ;))
The paint looks so nice and glossy I'm going to have to machine polish mine when the weathers better can't imagine it will look anywhere as nice as yours though
Clean!!! We have had 4 modeos in tbe day,good cars! New glove box latch on e bay £7.
good blog mate keep them coming Gary from Crewe
Martin great channel mate love ur vlogs
Do a series on underneath
They all suffer from surface rust and. A major rust preventative is a oil based product
While it ain’t got any holes
All the best to u and your family
Martin go the whole hog on the regal lump and hone it yourself with either the honing kits for your drill of like I did hire one. A stand big drill type thing attached by a boingy spring 😂 worked a treat. Agree with you and others MK3 best shape 100%
It's easier to break into a "Range Rover" than your gloves box 😮😊
😄 🤣 😂
Wow. That’s a great cleaning job Martin. Aussie Bob 😊😊😊
Nice car that Martin 👊🏻👌🤙🏻🤙🏻
No bad for Scottish car Martin 😂😂. Your looking well I get mine done by an Algerian guy he's brilliant does wash vallet and inside does a great job for me charges me £40 i do some mechanical work for him he buys a few motors. I need fix the hinge on my Audi glovebox.
I think the chaps who do mine a Ukrainian and they do work hard Ali.
Bootiful Car Martin!, I’m so glad that I discovered the channel, you’re such a likeable, funny and really honest fella!. Good on ya mate!. 👍👍👍
Thank you bud
Bathroom lights from screwfix work well, just be careful to get the right wattage ones. Have one in my Bathroom and it's fine, got one for the shed and it's not as bright. Didn't keep the boxes so couldn't compare them 🙄👍🇮🇪
Fabulous and interesting video Martin
Nice car Martin, cleans up Nice 👍
Thanks 👍
ULEZ complaint, yeah I agree the values will increase. Protect the subframes with wax rust inhibitor.
ST220. looked good when it has been cleaned. Can’t wait to see the trotted vehicle when it’s finished. If you have any bother getting anything you need would the car scrap yard maybe any .? Maybe unlikely due to cars age, but it was just a thought.
Martin i remember you on the Maintenance team @ Ollympia exibition centre and in the Roehampton Pie N Mash Shop.
Not me bud.
@@retrorestore yes you lived on that big estate in Roehampton I remember you.
@@rarecockneyguvnor4945 Yes I did.
In May first language, Mondeo means " Animal home"
Looks , fantastic 👍
Brilliant one Martin. I need a retrorestore sticker mate 👍🏻👍🏻
Email me your address John.
I need some sticker action too Martin. Derby John only came here on my suggestion horrid man 😂
@@civicvtec92 paaaahhh nothing for you my man 😂😂😂

👍👍👍. Thanks Martin
Getting undermine today treating the subframes to a rust protector and paint
Interested to know what speakers you upgrade to.
I installed a sub in mind recently. I'll do a quick video to show you how I routed the wires.
For the piston rings speak to barum engines in Barnstaple Devon if they can't get them they aren't available anywhere
Love this channel ❤
Glad you enjoy it!
@@retrorestore love it you provide a great service to us who like tinkering and working in our sheds
Happy to see the Mondeo again :D
join the Reliant Owners Cub, Martin, they will know the best spares sources.
Just got rid of my st220 Martin , gone to a mini cooper s
Brill mate
Buy some good rubber mats. Easy to clean and look good.
Is that a classic casino or a new 1 ❤
Lovely car Martin you really do know your stuff regarding cars well done martini😊
Would any 600cc motorcycle pistons fit in the Trotters van motor ???
Not sure.
use your bore scope?
Car is looking mint, still looks a fantastic car today. Ford have went downhill sadly.
😂Ford still build some of the best reliable cars ? Many extras as standard compared to other brands.
That blue is most definitely the best colour for the ST’s ! Stunning 👌🏻👌🏻
The ST220 is a lovely colour. Have you had it ceramic coated ? Worth it if you havent. I should have looked in previous videos to see if it was there. Sorry if it was.
I've thought about it, we'll see.
What about Sharon’s car Marty wallop
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Martin, Sharon and family - keep up the good work and ignore the trolls! We love your videos. Kind regards Will, Justine, Eva and Uma.
