Unwanted & Forgotten? Sat For 12 Years Ford Mondeo ST24, Will It Run And Drive To An MOT?

The first Mondeo to wear the now commonplace ST badge, and boy does it wear it well. Join me while I try my best to turn the fortunes of this once loved fast Ford motorway cruiser around.

    These early ST Mondeos are rare beasts now & like the early Focus ST they will appreciate in value. I think you should get it sorted properly & you’ll fetch a good price. Another cracking episode, finally a car show that’s realistic! Great work Ben, can’t wait for the next instalment

    I'm struggling to get my head around the fact that a mk2 Mondeo is now more than 25 years old and in danger of becoming a classic. My (then) girlfriends dad bought one of these new in the 90s and it feels like it was about a week ago 😮

    That Mondeo is well equipped! It has the high performance 24 Valve V6, manual transmission, etc, etc. It's too bad the sills (rocker panels) got rusted out. I would think a few patch panels would be able fix those rusted out areas. You can't beat a lightweight sedan with a powerful V6 engine!!! Six pistons are better than four!

    The ghia x v6 was a far better car as you had full leather and vertually all the same equipment

    I'd do all the work myself to save some money and mint it.

    Red spider mites, they are a pain in the greenhouse or house plants, like a spider version of an aphid, don't let them get on your hanging baskets lol. Love the Mondeo!

    I really like the old Ford Mondeos love to see this back on the road with all the repairs done, I also think this would be great content to watch 😊

    ahhh, Red Spider Mites. Don't see many of them now. Reminds me of being a kid in the 70/80's. Another great upload.

    This has got to be one of the best purchases you've made since I've been a fan of your channel and its 100percent got the potential to be a fantastic honest example of a true ford mondeo ST24 survivor can't wait for more episodes I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS CAR A PROPER TASTY CLASSIC IT'S SO MUCH WORTH YOU DOING THE WORK ON IT ESPECIALLY IF YOU DO A LITTLE BIT OF RESEARCH ON THE VALUATION BECAUSE as you probably know the prices of old fords are remarkable 80s 90s 00s cars in general MORE EPISODES PLEASE SIR 👍🏻OLD FORDS NEVER DIE THEY JUST GET FASTER

    Wow you never fail to impress me with yet another pitch perfect video. You could be prime time television as your entertainment skills are second to none as is your knowledge of vehicles. I’m definitely one of your top fans mate and want to thank you for keeping me sane whilst I’m suffering with a quite serious medical condition. You’re all what’s good about the world rolled in to one amazing guy. All the best

    Another great video. I'd forgotten how much of a Q-car the original Mondeo ST24 was.
