I had a long chat with Darren at Inchcape ford in Bracknell. He had to make a couple of calls but the upshot of it was that ford are no longer supporting the mkII fiesta. They have a number of parts at their clearance warehouse but it would appear that once they run out it is pattern parts only. He did, however, give me the ford part number which I was able to crosscheck with the part I ordered from Partco in Newbury. The guys there couldn't have been more helpful and really knew their stuff. Much Impressed.
