ford fiesta 1.6

[bub2006]

Picked up new car yesterday. 51 plate fiesta freestyle. 12 months ticket,6 months tax. 375 quid. I think its the poor man's zetec s. Not as stiff suspension or the big alloys of the zetec s but not as wallowy in bends as a base model fiesta. same engine as zetec s though I think,105bhp engine,alloys and electric Windows. Just fitted a new coil,plugs and leads as it was firing on 4 occasionally. 50 quid for parts. Very nippy and no rot on it either which is surprising. Very chuckable in bends and sticks to the road. Bit of a jump down in luxury and space but its a lot quicker and agile.

Sounds like a bargain that.

 

What's so Freestyle about them though? Do they slide down bits of drain pipes, occasionally smashing their bollocks on a handrail or something?

Simply cant go wrong at that price with the T&T. I presume it was a local classified at that money?

Not gone on any half pipes yet! It's my wifes,bosses daughters car. She owned it for 6 years. It had a cambelt 2 years ago,needed a wheel bearing for mot last month so had that along with two tyres that was only an advisory. Had new starter motor and battery about 6 month ago. Very clean and tidy little motor.

Sorry,11 month mot. Mot in October with the wheel bearing and tyres fitted,been sat for 3 weeks on the drive as she took it for test then bought a bigger car week later. I've cleaned brakes off as one was sticking,oil change plugs,coil and leads and all is well.
