Supernaut Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 That temperature gauge is hilarious. Cold - nooormaaaal don't worry about it - FUCKED Also, is this generation of Fiesta a CVT box instead of a conventional auto?

mk2_craig Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Grim!! That's done well to last this long with the CTX box, but plausible if the 493 miles on the clock is genuine Cavcraft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greengartside Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Like this! Early one on an N-plate, and also with the keep-fit windows. I think the LX got them as standard in mid-1996. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougiefourspeed Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 'L' is for 'Low' surely? To give the same effect as locking a conventional auto in 2nd or something. Lacquer Peel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mk2_craig Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 Steel belted on these? I don't think they ever put a conventional auto in any pre 2000 Fiesta (Unless someone's managed to bosh in a 3 speed ATX from a mk3 Escort somehow) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
