It's a 2008 2.0 TDCi Titanium Estate on 100k miles. What attracted me to it was its condition and service history where up to 82k it has full Ford history under one owner. Unfortunately the last 18k (on owner number 2) is undocumented. Testing the car on purchase day though it pulled well, handled well and idled smoothly. Problem has got a lot worse and now the car is difficult to start. Depending on how long the car has been standing it can take up to 60 secs for the engine to fire.
