Well with the car sold, guess I won't be needing this stuff either
Motul - best I've used whilst racing, in the very specific Ford 948B spec, as required by the V8's and Bullitts
Although there's £90 worth here - for sale for £25 on the premise that the buyer collects or arranges collection...
Well the McL is x2.2 what I sold the Bullitt for... but then again, COVID and the global parts/car shortage has meant that the prices of second hand cars has been very very good.
What I find amazing is that there is a Ford Dealer in Leeds that is selling a brand new (never registered) Bullitt...
Ah - just about everyone does, hence the extra appeal. Always a talking point when people saw it
Now dropped off at the trader who bought it - actually somewhat sad it's gone. Even on the way there had a 40's bloke pull along side and wind his window down to say 'great car mate'
I'll miss...
The recent sale of my Bullitt means that I have a completely spare set (new in box, unopened) of Diode Dynamic Side markers.
SMOKED Lens - blend well and look so much better than the orange reflective panels we normally get in the UK cars
I had a set on the car when sold - but having had...
Wow, 2 years has passed quickly and I thought until very recently that this was going to be my last petrol engined car forever.
Have loved every minute of ownership of the Bullitt, helped by it being a rarer UK Black one - always a talking point at shows. However opportunity has arisen and I'm...
Like most reputable brands they suffer over time, as the need to cheapen the production process to remain competitive against cheaper imports capitalising against your non-longer unique selling point.
I had a couple of earlier dremels - which when running racing Elises's were a godsend...
If it's a Bullitt I would leave un-modded
that said I've added the Bullitt Brace bar as UK cars don't come with them and the red LED side/tail marker lights - again because uk cars only come with orange reflectors
Now duly delivered to Lookers in Middlesborough
The AA confirmed that the exhaust valves wasn't a wiring thing - one was in fact seized. Safe to drive - just watch the temperature, which was easy as it was pretty much in limp mode. Excellent MPG though getting to to Middlesborough - was 39...
So a triple whammy today on my 18 month of Bullitt, 3 warnings and the MIL light on lit in steady orange:
Malfunction Indictor lamp - regulatory
The powertrain control system has detected an electrical fault with the engine high-speed cooling fan control circuit. This can result in...
By way of update.
Email exchanges over the weekend direct with Diode Dynamics and without quibble they were happy to honour the 3 year warranty even though I didnt buy direct from them.
I did however have to get my original receipt from Steeda UK and return the faulty lights.
In contacting...
The joys of Apple Pay - it didnt create an account. However I have dates from my debit card and I do have the latest order number in my emails / receipts.
I'm a fan of the Diode Dynamic LED side markers, I think they make UK cars look more American and I fitted them to my Bullitt within days of receiving the car.
However 13 months into ownership I noticed one side had stopped working. Given the strong £/$I quickly snapped a second set up, so that...
