main thing is say is cheak for rust everywere! fiestas rot! and check condition of the turbo it may be a new reconned T3 or T3 off a s2 esc turbo, fiestas run a T2 as std which reduces lag but obviously not as easy to tune!

oh u proberly head but u can do a ZVH conversion and have a nice 2.0 turbo, just find a mondeo 2.0 zetec for a few hundred :wink:

I'm sorry, did you say a Ford?

That's going to be shit when compared to a willy.

JayR

^^^Dont agree with that at all.

imho they look better, nothing better than the recaros for that cars era and that specific one will shift loads better than a williams if the spec givens genuine!

The only thing it hasnt got goin for it is reliablility but then a williams isnt brilliant either!

Handling?

Sorry but IMO Fords are gash.

JayR
30-09-2005, 15:38
Umm ok then merv so im guessing your one for thinking the new ST Focus turbo will be gash too just because it has a Ford badge!?

Really wish some of you single minded Renaultites would expand your vision abit more sometimes..............You sound like one of the mk2 freaks over on CS! :lol:

The mk1 Clio isnt the greatest car ever to grace this earth!

Well for me it's just a loathing of anything with a blue oval badge TBH. I will concede that newer Fords can handle a bit.

But a Fiesta? Don't think so.

LOL check this discussion.

If I got it or any the stripes would stay.

I've always loved Fords, sorry but I have. Love the scene, the cult following and the endless things you can do to make them quicker. My last performance ford was 5yrs ago but I still go to ford fair etc etc.

More details on the fiesta would be good fella, along with some piccys if possible.

Still arguing over valuation of my car at the moment. I'll buy another car and just pay myself back when its settled.
