It's probably already sripped for the fiesta parts. As a Quantum its 
value is low but as a pile of parts its worth a lot more. We have 
already seen Duttons scrapped to rebuild MK1 Escorts. Lets hope this 
isn't the start of a trend with our Quantums being at higher risk of 
theft.

Subj: Re: [Quantum Owners] Re: stolen 2+2



I have now moved to north yorkshire/cleveland borders. The car was 
stolen in berkshire from the garage it was being stored in. I am 
keeping an eye on ebay etc for it but don't hold out massive hope. As 
the car was in quite poor condition there had been a lot of interest in 
it from the fiesta community. Her Majestys finest tell me they are 
doing all they can, which, in my experience means looking for it on 
speed cameras or in a pile of paperwork. This is particularly annoying 
because I am so far away and don't have eyes on the area any more. 
Cheers for your support guys and should any of you find yourselves 
driving the north yorkshire moor roads please pop in and say hi.

 And it was particularly nice for me as I got to spot my old Q2+2 from the 
vantage point of my current one! Its new owner has done a fantastic job and 
made me feel that I need to do a lot more than a wash and polish before 
next year's Stoneleigh.

Sadly I didn't get a chance to chat with its current owner but I have very 
fond memories of owning F508PHV - the 'pretty hot vehicle'!

[Quantum Owners] Stoneleigh - And the Return Journey!!!!

2013-05-07 Thread Hamish Freeman
We would like to add our Thanks to all those who worked so hard to make this
year’s Stoneleigh another great success.

 

Our return journey was to say the least frustrating!  Yesterday we found
that the whole of the area 10 miles in any direction around Warwick was in
gridlock, mostly because the police were on point duty on the A46/M40
interchange trying hard to avoid back-ups on the motorway but actually
causing a 5 mile tail back through Warwick and any other route we tried.
Certainly a day to throw away the GPS as it seemed to have a magnetic
attraction towards snarl-ups - probably because everyone else’s GPS systems
were trying to use the same route.  It seemed that all the major roads were
solid and it took 5 hours to get to Marlborough, a journey of usually about
1 hour!

 

Today I thought I might just check that everything had survived the roasting
in the traffic jams – Oil: OK, Brake fluid: OK, Power steering Oil: OK; hey
wait a minute – No water in the header tank!  No leak was evident and
there was no evidence of any water under the car.  A full big kettle of
water later we had water in the header and decided to chance it back.  It is
surprising how fast one can go on nothing more than ¼ throttle all the way
home to keep the temperature gauge almost on its lower stop.  The fuel
economy was incredible; made up for yesterday’s maxi swallowing effort for
no distance.  We just got back home with no apparent loss of water and I was
talking to the neighbours with the engine idling when the leak finally
decided to show itself – all over the driveway!  It appears that the side
junction on the pipe that goes between the pump and the rad had decided to
fail – underneath so it could not be seen – and was finally going to give
its all.  This is possibly the worst hose for accessibility but as there
will be no water in the rad it is probably better to take that out first so
I can get to the water pump end, which is sandwiched between the power
steering pump and the engine mount.  Other practical suggestions are
welcomed.  Let’s hope the hoses are still available as I drew a blank on
replacing the engine mounts last month.

 

Hamish and Trish

Hamish,
Glad Trish and yourself made it home safely and I hope you are both well.

I too had a coolant leak in the Xtreme, which saw me being recovered home 
from Aylesbury, as the heater matrix looks to be leaking.  I have 2 foot 
wells covered in anti-freeze.  Not long to fix this before the Wales tour.

Regards,
