Mondeo's and Duct tape

[Raz316]

Ok this isn't a dig at any Mondeo owners out there, it's an honest question.

How come half of the 1994-1995 Mondeos I see have loads of duct tape on their front bumpers? It sound's like an exaggeration but it seems to be the case for every other one I see. Is there a common defect or something?

[J4MES]

because they're made of thin plastic over polystyrene and they crack easily... thats why my old man's did anyway..

I've noticed that too lol Normally on the back round here.

[Guy]

there are quite a few like it here as well, but I really cant comment seeing as the sides of my front bumper/hole in the drivers door, of my scoob is held in place with duck tape!

[Howard]

Yep it's always the shabby old mk1 Mondeos I see with the back bumpers cracked/demolished

[kalniel]

Spot on observation - seen loads as well

[Lee H]

LOL I see a fair few of these on a daily basis.

Another thing I've spotted is the amount of Fiat Punto's that should be red but are infact a shade of pink is quite disturbing as well

[arbitor]

haha thats a subliminal thought there, i always think that but never think about saying it lol, fair play

Ford Fiesta/Fiat Puntos with different colour doors/bonnets from bad repairs look almost like them old Citroens were they called Dolly cars or something?

funny little cars. We had a blue (light&dark) one, though it spent about as much time getting fixed as it did on the road, which you could watch going by through the rust-holes in the floor... Luckily the old (engine-fire-survior) golf was usually out the garage when the 2cv was in. We kind of drove/fixed them alternately .

Yeah pretty cool but I remebered a conversation with my friend saying they were no too reliable

Pretty cool though as some looked like them patched blankets
