According to Google UPS uses ShipStation Australia, Interparcel Australia and PACK & SEND. Whoever delivers it hope they don't fold it!

Parcel is on it's way to James in the colonies . For large parcels from UK to other countries it seems Parcelforce is the way to go. But Parcelforce doesn't operate from NL. Don't trust the ParcelParcel website to give you an indication of postage from all the different couriers. It gave a quote of 180 Euro for UPS but when you directly use the UPS website the actual amount is much less (half).

Again having issues with loading the forum. Some times I can get on but posting and/or sending pm's isn't working. Most of the time loading the home-page just times out.

Have a lot of Technical Service Training books from Ford. CG 7859 covers the design and working of the 4F27E autobox as used on the Focus. CG 7860 covers diagnosis of that box. If your car has the 4F27E transmission look for those original Ford books online. I could email you scans but mine are in Dutch ... on this transmission the transmission selector switch is mounted onto the side of the tramsmission.

What is the type of transmission the car has? (AG5?) Can they reset the fault?

Had a quick look at postage from me to UK: seems UPS is again cheapest at around 90 Euro. Will pack the grille in a lean way and let you both know the actual packed dimensions and weight.

Parcelforce does not operate from the Netherlands. @Vista Estate: can you PM me your address so I can get a quote to post the grille to you?

Don't know, will look into it. I used -> https://my.parcelparcel.com/shipment/booking

Hi James, have been looking for alternative couriers but cannot find any. Grille itself is 135 x 22 x 6 cm and weighs 1.6 kgs. Cheapest I can find for this (but should add some for packaging) is UPS at 180 Euros . If anyone knows how Burton and MST ship them ?

Mk1 or Mk2?

Normally yes, but the Pirelli P7F was more like a 205 tyre as said.

Back in the day the German's choice was the Pirelli P7F in 175/50R13 . The 175 width was probably just to keep the TuV happy as it was more like a 205 tyre in reality. In UK I've seen Uniroyal 195/55R13 tyres on 7.5 inch rims.

The wheels on the car in the photos above are 7.5 's all round. First introduced in UK on FMC555V a Mk2 Escort concourse car in the late 90's. Which copied the German RS scene look. Narrowed rear axle, modified front hubs, rolled arches and machined rims to get a different ET-value.
