Yet Another Fantastic Video Alan!!! "Thank You"
As always a great informative video
I'm glad you put that door trim on at the end it was annoying me lol . Great video again Alan and good work 👌
well done Alan not easy
Great video. Definately worth fixing if the car is earning.. though I wonder if the other drivers insurance would of wrote it off??
I wonder why Ford in their wisdom put the rear arm bolt in from the top as fiestas etc all go in upwards. Good video Alan . It beggars belief the long winded things you have to do on some cars/vans just to accomplish an easy task.👍🏴
Alan you’re as mad as a box of frogs 🐸 But make absolutely fantastic video on fixing mondingo 🤣
I'm kinda surprised that you didn't fit the wishbone bolt in the other way around to save yourself some time if you ever have to remove it again in the future.
Was never a fan of the mk3 Mondeo,they used to break front springs and seize up the rear calipers for fun!!
Great vid as usual Alan 😉👍
Was not expecting the first 2 minutes of that agenda you was referring to regarding build back better and wef/who 😄. So glad your aware of whats going on and hopefully the viewers are to. Brilliant vid. Keep em coming……
Great video again Alan, fast moving and very informative. Please keep them coming, although appreciate filming must be a pain when you want to crack on.
Thanks Alan
Have Mk3 Mondeo's suddenly become valuable or something, Ha Ha ?
Allen
Great job do mate how hard do you think it would be to do same job on your driveway with your own tools has some guys but right offs and repair and sell cars on to make good profits love the video

Hi Alan, just wondering fitting some rear shocks (oem) to a mk5 (65) mondeo estate
Can they be fitting wrong way?
As in sloping bottom lugs… Does in make a difference ?
Many Thannks
For your help Dean.
I remember having "Windforce" chinese tyres on my Mondeo, fuck me it was frightening to drive with them on. Grip? What grip…
The intro's always remind me of certain VHS videos my older brothers had hidden from our parents 🤣🤣🤣
Any chance of tracking lines flickering up the screen for nostalgia 👍
Loving the videos, I see Steve's Taxis and the Heritage fleet every day living in Huntingdon.
I hired one a few years back, I'll be honest and tell you…I had a brand new car and didn't want to do tip runs in it, but I cleaned it well before return 👍
Charlie
Brilliant !
Good job Alan 👍👌👏
nyahahaha, hey how are you?
Dear all, can someone here finally tell me where is the blinker relay for left and right turn signal in Mondeo mk3. I started to become mad, if someone knows, please tell me.
Great video, very helpful, thanks
That hub should have been replaced after a clump like that..how do you know its not bent or cracked?…you didnt do a full alignment check?.Putting tyres made of banana skins on a rental car just seems crazy.
What did you replace the old Vito van with in the end..great video as usual Alan…
10:40 If i dont member wrong we just cut the head off that bolt and install the new bolt otherway around. Buten again i don even remember when was the last time we needed to change that lower arm. Cheers!
Who would rent a MK3 mondeo, it's ancient, 17 years old and rotten underneath, not me
Did ya buy the MK3 back off the insurance, will it get a new alloy at some stage?
see alloy arrived nice fit
Great Video Alan, You must be listening to Classic FM like me.
Better than turning it into bean cans but £1200 is a fair amount of money considering you used a door you already had.
Thankyou Allen 👍
Accident damaged car's are never the same as before pre crash I wouldn't even bother in one
Hi Alan, great to hear someone taking re The Reset before it's common knowledge. Appreciate your candid videos on everything including the above 👍
That underbody corrosion is horrendous!
Why don't you use cordless tools they are so much better than air tools
Had a mk3 st if only you were close lol had to scrap it in the end
Hey Alan what's this for a Mask?
Mr Yankee doodle dandy was splashing the cash wasn't he,a 16 year old hire car.
