Hi all, I'm probably taking my dads mk1 mondeo 2.0 off to the scrappy in a few weeks, its a great runner, always serviced with about 115k on the clock and its tested till next year. They are offering £170 complete which is pretty fair in my mind but I'm wondering whether to stick it on ebay for kitcar or a engine conversion job, is the 2.0 zetec worth anything more than say an 1.8 etc?

can't tell you what it's worth but it's a good engine swap for a fiesta SI 1.6 16v.. they have an owners forum on www.fiesta-si.comta, Rich |

The 1.8 and 2.0 seem to be similar in price. The 1.6 seems to be the most valuable second hand, despite the huge number of them in cars, they die and need replacing more often.
£170 sounds a bargain for a car with 6 months test. A potential buyer could scrap it and have 6 months motoring for the price a short tax disc.

£170 seems fair for scrap price, but with six months test it's probably worth at least £250-£300 if it's a decent enough runner and doesn't urgently need any repairs to drive.
Difficult one. £170 in the hand from the scrapman or probably a bit more from ebay. But then you've got the fees and the messers...
Quite popular with banger racers too so there's another option.

if its a silvertop zetec with a dewy deep or desk ecu you'd get £200 for the engine ecu, throttle body and airflow sensor on ebay or escortevolution etc, maybe more... also if it has the 16" 5 spoke wheels they go for £25 a piece in fair condition to escort / fiesta owners

I'd imagine a banger would give you more than £170 for it.

Why not place an advert on here as someone might want it as a daily (would be a shame to see a mk1 thats usable get scrapped)
