Title: Where were Scorpios built? Post by Vince on Apr 8th, 2006, 7:14pm Apologies if this is stated somewhere, I tried doing a search of the site but I'm a bit crap at computers. Plus it's nice to get to know you. I'm picking up my first scorpio this week and I'm sure I will be around here a lot. Where were Scorpios built? UK, Belgium, Germany, what? |

Title: Re: Where were Scorpios built? Post by Vince on Apr 8th, 2006, 7:56pm Cheers Dave. I'm getting a 2.3 16v. The 2-litre seemed underpowered, and I thought about a 2.9 but the 12v seemed to be no better than the 2.3 (and thistier) and the 24v, appealing though it was, seems to be scarily expensive if it goes wrong. Of course the 2.9 Cosworth is the ultimate drivers car but my best mate has a 2.3 16v and I know that will be sufficient for my driving needs, as well as being maintainable by my little village garage. |
