As a heads up he has restricted performance and a leaking front suspension plus some other minor bodywork bits.
restricted performance turned out to be an easy fix but suspension problems a bit more tricky2011 D4 XS 305 MY12 - gone but not forgotten

Funny enough just watched the restricted performance bit , wow , he lucked out there
Just getting to the second half of the suspension error
As a side note ref valve blocks I learnt a big lesson that after I fitted new seals I carried out a vacuum test to ensure they weren’t letting by , unfortunately they were so had to fit new ones
Also checked out that company he used , great price if someone is in a pinch and just want to keep it going
That valve block connector I’ve never seen that happen before
Thks again as indeed a very interesting watch

only chanced upon his channel as he was doing a video on an immaculate 1994 Escort Si Convertible.
He is doing a ''Wheeler dealers'' style trading up series
He straight swapped a pick up truck that he had just worked on to get the D4, £6900 effectively, did the work on the D4 which cost him only a couple of hundred in parts and then sold it for just under £9k. I think he netted about £1900 profit out of it. He seemed pretty thorough but not sure Id like to trust the longevity of the budget parts he used.2011 D4 XS 305 MY12 - gone but not forgotten
