Just picked up my new mondeo TDci today, well more like last friday drove it for 5min and went to perth and just got home today.
Got some picks and before anyone comments on the number plate the reason for the 007 is because bond drives one for 5min in Casino Royale. Hopefully get the new rims this week if not will be after christmas and also a carbra. cheers tim |

Great purchase mate, I hope you enjoy it. Nice work with the plates also, hehe.
What new wheels were you looking at getting? I'm actually curious to find out how the standard Mondeo alloys will look on a Focus... |

thanks guys, the wheels i was looking at were by speedy but they wont fit because of the space between each stud so im going to go to the shop and they said they will give me a list on what fits.
Fuel comsumption is great getting 7L per 100KM on the highway, parking sensors are best thing invented, and the stereo well its better than any other standard ive heard its like its got a sub in there. the only thing im getting use to is (automatic) when tacking off it lags but soon as it gets into second it takes off. any other question??? cheers tim |

The P.C.D. of a wheel refers to the diameter of an imaginary circle drawn through the centre of the nut/stud holes in the mounting face of the wheel.
See http://www.speedywheels.com.au/wheel-tech.htm |
