Hanky already gave you the the thumbs up on the job well done, so, Welcome aboard X2!

If you have any questions, or need help in the form of a help/tech request, you can put it up here, or depending on how detailed and Ford the product your drive'n, you can open up a new thread/topic.

When your on any page, if you look on the upper left page header you'll see the site name and vehicle image.. Click on it, and it will open to the home page and thread lists.. From the list scroll to the thread that applies. Once you make your selection, over to the left of the column header you'll see, 'new thread'.. Post away!

We also like pictures here, Huh Hanky!! and if you need help there, we can get you up and running on a 'required' image, No,, not really, but we like to see members rides.

To add images,

One way, when replying to a thread/post scroll down to the 'additional options' and 'manage attachments'. You can upload from there, Or, if you have a photobucket account (free), you can post the 'image code' into the post for a much better overall pic. since the images aren't file size restricted.

Again, Welcome..

Thanks for your response...much appreciated! However, I'm a real dinosaur when it comes to understanding the world of IT....so expect quite a few 'Bloomers'!
For anyone who's interested (yawn)....I'm a Londoner who's lived in Normandie NW France for over 15 years. Our RHD French registered Xantia is in danger of becoming a Classic Car, so we recently bought (from a guy over here) a UK registered MK3 (Facelift) Mondeo Zetec. The strange thing is that the French insurance company can't find an equivalent model.
In Magnum grey, it is an impressive car...just got to sort out a few 'problems' like the new battery I bought (For Mondeo model) doesn't seem to fit in the tray!
Anyone got a suggestion of where I can obtain an Owner's Handbook+ Audio?..in English of course. Ebay has them but do not specify whether they apply to the Facelift spec.
OK....I don't know if I've infringed any Forum rules. If I have...someone tell me or I'll never learn!

Right!....I've just realised that your site is AMERICAN based so you guys are unlikely to know where I can get a BRITISH handbook.....oops!
Long time since I last visited the States....drove down from San Francisco to Mexico in a Chevrolet Caprice (I think that was the model). Thoroughly enjoyed myself!
