Firstly forgive me if this is appearing in the wrong place, as I am far better with cars than computers. Nearly 4 years ago I bought a 1996 (P) Scorpio 2litre Ultima Auto (Loden green) to replace the Granada that was rapidly turning into a pile of red oxide. The Scorpio has proved to be the best car I ever owned, only needing annual service from a local independent Ford mechanic and a new exhaust system. This site is absolutely amazing, friendly. informative and very entertaining at times, a real unexpected bonus to Scorpio ownership. Many Thanks to all

Hello Baz, The 'Corsair' name has a boating connection, not your type of Corsair, though I am aged enough to remember driving a 1965 1500 Ford Corsair when it was nearly new! Looks like you have a challenge there but well worth it. I recall thatl the Corsair was far better than the average motor of its day. Corsair
