Doesn't seem that strange (to me) that the *principle*, wants to keep the 2nd hand at the outskirts, away from Sturt Street. All his mechanics are probably too busy with *the* Pajero. ;-) Ya know, on reflection, we've never owned a Ford or Mitsubishi. Lucky eh. :-) -- Take Care. ~~ Feral Al ( @..@) (\- :-P -/) ((.>__oo__<.)) ^^^ % ^^^

A lot of people liked the 6 cyl Cortina's despite their shitty build quality and many faults but that was mainly because they performed quite well in a straight line. BTW the engineer (my next door neighbour for 15yrs) who was given the job of fitting the 6 into the Cortina wanted to move the engine back at least 6" to improve the cars balance but he wasn't allowed to as it reduced the cars interior space too much so the cars were too nose heavy.
