Am I the only person who was hoping this was going to be turned into a full btcc replica? 😂 Good to see you back Mr P, looking forward to seeing how this one comes together
I have an L reg 1.8 TD with the RS kit and Si int, even has ST alloys and a S/S twin exit exhaust 😂 They do handle well for their size but mine needs more power 😁
Nice to see you back with a new video. I for one have missed you. Good to see you back to full form. Looking forward to what you are going to do with the Mondeo 👍👍👍
I always wanted a mondeo, always liked them and i drove a few through work when they first came out. Unless im mixing it up, i remember they used to come with a clip for a pen ,
So good to see you back and hopefully in a much better place, the internet hasn't been the same without you. What a return too, straight in with a darling of the car scene, a MK1 Mondeo. Wonderful! Although I would urge caution with that steering wheel, I've seen what an accident with one of those can do and it isn't pretty. But you pay your money and make your choice, enjoy it!
Be careful with the MOT Paul. If a car left the factory with an airbag wheel (regardless of age) MOT’r can see that on MOT data and it’s a fail if airbag missing and aftermarket wheel on. Of course nothing to say can’t swap around before & after MOT. Also you will get constant airbag light fault come up so need the resistor kits in electronics to keep light off. Brilliant project otherwise 😍
Good choice as a future classic. The early Mondeo IMHO was as important as the MK1 Cortina and was a game changer. I had one all the way though the 90's and naughties after my Rover series 1 827 SI manual...
Return of the Renegade Master!! 💪Noice 🤩 I still remember ragging a mates, leggy ex polis, P reg, white, blue velour, 1.8LX hatch round South Wales in 2001 - what a car!
I had a 1998 Mk2 Mondeo Ghia which i loved. Super comfortable and so smooth to drive. I had to sell it as we had caravans at the time and 25mph up the a21, flat out was a bit slow progress lol.
It needs the red plastic strip that some of them had between the rear lights…. 60mm drop is just daft, especially with standard length aftermarket shocks from the local motor factor….
Welcome back Mr p. The spoiler..... I agree removal is paramount. I'm thinking size wise it looks right , but the shape is wrong. I'm thinking it's meant for the hatchback and was "made" to fit the saloon. I look forward to seeing the recommissioning.
We had Vimto in Wythenshawe, Manchester as a client and I was working there. The upwardly mobile IT Manager got a brand new company car, a Mondeo just as they were released. The first day he had it, he locked up the brakes in the wet and hit a guy in a Metro leaving the dealer after just collecting it from repair for a previous accident. Poor elderly guy in the Metro had 2 small dogs in car, and in shock after the hit they jumped on the old guy's lap and proceeded to pee on him out of fear and shock! Wasn't his day at all!
Hi Chris great to see you back on the big screen mate. So much love for the mk1 mondeo, I had a mk1 2.0 ghia x auto hatchback in that dark cherry colour. It came with the sames wheel that were on the 1st frog eye Scorpios but in 4 stud configuration. I also had a mk2 mondeo glx a mk3 mondeo 2.2 155 titanium x diesel, a mk4.5 mondeo 2.2 tdci 175 titanium x sport estate .its far to say I love a mondeo. I can remember back in the day you Ben Morley and nick Thomas back in your retro ford performance ford days messing about with a mondeo, a mk5/6 escort and a frog eye cosworth scrorpio. What ever happened to that project 😀👍
Genuinely love this Chris - like you I have been a fan of Mondeos since Rouse and Radisich - dying with Italian style is a noble way to go 😂 Hope this project gets some traction as it’s a great idea
ive meant to say this before elsewhere Chris, but if you change the pollen/cabin filter on it, be careful how you refit the clips/screws that hold the passengers side scuttle panel in. a couple of guys i worked with back in the day didnt get them located quite right and when the screws were put in, they touched the windscreen and cracked it. also, it seems to be missing the aircon lines, from what i can see at around 3 mins in the video. the Veronas selling point at the time was aircon. Great to see you back posting vids too!
Some questionable mods, but life would be boring if we were all the same. Thanks for the video loving them. Post when you can, no pressure on the frequency.
Good evening Mr P, hope you're doing ok? Nice to see you back mate and glad you're still buying cheap knackered old shite. My cheap knackered old shite also has an oil cap rattling amout of blow-by. Ive bought a cone filter and a manual boost controller...... that'll sort it! 💥
If you have any ignition issues swap out the coil pack. My Zetec E of same vintage likes to make tappety noises sometimes, when it chooses, rest of the time it's silent. Velour seats for the win.
I have a new set of 40mm lowered springs for a mk1, need to makes sure you have the right struts on the front though, mk1 struts are smaller in the spring seat but most have mk2 struts on them by now as mk1 struts became unavailable a good few years ago 🤔 Nice car, don't see many others about, mines off the road at the mo, hand brake issues lol Just subbed, not seen you since the old RR days, a bloody long time ago 🤯
Hello! I have a MK1. I look for the parts catalogue. I live in Brazil and there are practically no parts for this car here. If anyone has any information about the catalog or about selling parts online, I would be very grateful.

Good to have you back Po, we've all missed you. Glad it seems you're in a better place.
Delighted to see you back on YT. You are an absolute natural at it - knowledge, humour and interest. Keep at it. 🙌
I had a mondeo in the same colour juice green I think it was called mine was an st24 and it to date was the most reliable car I’ve ever owned
Am I the only person who was hoping this was going to be turned into a full btcc replica? 😂 Good to see you back Mr P, looking forward to seeing how this one comes together
My mates got a lovely L reg 2.0 Si hatch. With a full factory fitted RS kit. One owner car. They still drive well. Like them, always did
I have an L reg 1.8 TD with the RS kit and Si int, even has ST alloys and a S/S twin exit exhaust 😂
They do handle well for their size but mine needs more power 😁
Good to see you back, youve been missed!
You’re back! And with a Mondeo. Happy days
Good to see you back in the fight Chris.
Nice to see you back with a new video. I for one have missed you. Good to see you back to full form. Looking forward to what you are going to do with the Mondeo 👍👍👍
He's returned! Count me in on this gig. Looking forward to more!

Welcome back looking forward to seeing how Monty Doneo progresses 👍
Great to have you back Chris, love the look of those old Mondeo's. Can't wait to see its progress!
Good choice as a future classic. The early Mondeo IMHO was as important as the MK1 Cortina and was a game changer. I had one all the way though the 90's and naughties after my Rover series 1 827 SI manual...
I well remember being driven to the hospital in one from college...........
Return of the Renegade Master!! 💪Noice 🤩

Tyres on something like this need to be round. I 100% agree with you. No need for fancy stuff.
Looking forward to seeing you get back on the tools
This is great, looking forward to more
Inspect and clean the PCV system as a part of the service. Very easy to do and if it has not been done it will benefit from it.
I had a 1998 Mk2 Mondeo Ghia which i loved. Super comfortable and so smooth to drive. I had to sell it as we had caravans at the time and 25mph up the a21, flat out was a bit slow progress lol.
Welcome back fellow saloon man. Nice car. Looking forward to the engine bay detailing video.
It needs the red plastic strip that some of them had between the rear lights….
60mm drop is just daft, especially with standard length aftermarket shocks from the local motor factor….
Good on you fella keeping the old stuff alive top man 👍👍👍
Great to have you back man! I’ve precisely zero interest in Mondeo’s but I enjoyed watching the whole thing. Thanks Chris!
Always thought this sedan mk1 Mondeo was cute.
Good to see you back Chris! Love the car looking forward to seeing this one!
Welcome back Mr p. The spoiler..... I agree removal is paramount. I'm thinking size wise it looks right , but the shape is wrong. I'm thinking it's meant for the hatchback and was "made" to fit the saloon. I look forward to seeing the recommissioning.
from memory (although its 30 years ago now) the spoiler for the hatch and saloon were identical
We had a Mondeo of that vintage. They really are a lovely car. Looking forward to seeing how it turns out.
Love a Mondeo Chris. Looking forward to seeing the upgrades and detail!

All saloons were better executions than the hatchback variants. Love a mk1 Mondeo saloon. Mk2 Cavalier is another example of this.

Great to see you back posting vids too!
Yeahhhhhhhh Boiiiiii
Looking forward to see the effort going in to get it to where you want it.
4th time I've watched this now. Lovely, lovely viewing can't wait to watch this car transform
Glad to see you back Chris!
Thrilled to have you back! Great vid
Some questionable mods, but life would be boring if we were all the same. Thanks for the video loving them. Post when you can, no pressure on the frequency.
Welcome back Po, good to see your back uploading again
Missed you fella. Been waiting for your next Video like I have been waiting for Spring..
My dad had a MK1 Mondeo M829WSX 1.8 GLX fantastic car was gutted when he sold it in 2003
Really great to see you CP, you’re so good at this 👍🏻
love the mk1 mondeo. Had a 1.6 saloon LX but had all the ghia trim and alloys.
Good evening Mr P, hope you're doing ok? Nice to see you back mate and glad you're still buying cheap knackered old shite.
My cheap knackered old shite also has an oil cap rattling amout of blow-by. Ive bought a cone filter and a manual boost controller...... that'll sort it! 💥
Had a mk2 estate in green. Miss that car. Can't wait to see what you do with yours.
My first time coming across your channel.im looking forward to see this project
Best of luck
Great to see you back Chris, missed your dulcet tones
If you have any ignition issues swap out the coil pack. My Zetec E of same vintage likes to make tappety noises sometimes, when it chooses, rest of the time it's silent. Velour seats for the win.
Enjoyed this immensely, thanks so much.
The heated screens can be regulated by two fuses, one for each side so, worth checking both are ok.
Both are fine. Checked on the basis of this comment. I guess it's just borked.
I wish I could like it twice.
Not seen a mondingo in ages! Should scrub up well this one. A daily driver to listen to some old skool tunes!
Welcome back friend, nice video once again.
looking forward to seeing it get Pollitt-ised!
Nice buy. I wasn’t keen on the hatchback Mondeo, either - I liked the saloons and estates best. Imagine there aren’t many estates left, especially. 👍🏻
Like a lot of things better 2nd time around 👏
Waiting to hear an Enya / dubstep mashup. (I'm old and have no clue as to what that means)
No wheels in the boot? Cracking vid!
I have a new set of 40mm lowered springs for a mk1, need to makes sure you have the right struts on the front though, mk1 struts are smaller in the spring seat but most have mk2 struts on them by now as mk1 struts became unavailable a good few years ago 🤔
Nice car, don't see many others about, mines off the road at the mo, hand brake issues lol
Just subbed, not seen you since the old RR days, a bloody long time ago 🤯
Welcome back!
I immediatley think BTTC when I see a Mondeo, Laguna etc.
Loosing the airbag isn't a good idea.
P reg GLX should have ABS?
"I don't need decent tyres"
“look at my billet gear knob"
I don't need performance tyres
good to see you back. you really did forget how to edit didnt you! maybe watch the video after you have finished it! lol
I want a paint faded cracked RS spoiler 😂
I would have gone Toyo TR1’s very very good and not pricey.
Hello! I have a MK1.
I look for the parts catalogue. I live in Brazil and there are practically no parts for this car here. If anyone has any information about the catalog or about selling parts online, I would be very grateful.
I think I'd watch "Slow and dubious"
7hp 😂👍
On Fords were the Radio codes under the centre console pods/ashtray/thing !?!
nope.
It's 2024 not 2023! 😂
Nice project chief.
It was when it was filmed.
Nice work lad. Keep on keepin’ on.
Promo-SM ✅
Where you based buddy??
Bristol
@@PollittsProjects that is a bit far for a set of wheels, lol
