One of the funniest ad's I've seen for a long time :lol:

Ultra desirable features including being a 2.2 with SMG, 17" wheels and a wood dash, a custom exhaust "which sounds absolutely gorgeous on a cold start and at high revs. It has to be heard to be believed", much like the piston slap I imagine :o

....... and being sold by a juvenile Esssex horse trader who's owned it for "nearly a whole year", although to be fair that is probably 50% of his driving career. Form an orderly queue for a future classic :exitright:
2003 2.5 SE, low miles, Sterling Grey, 108's & Eagles, no stubby here! Unmolested.
2018 Cooper S Countryman
Fiesta Ecoboost
