Project Poor old Fiesta.......

[djb222]

Hi, new member here who loves most things automotive.... I've recently sold a very nice MG ZT 190 with that lovely V6 and a K series Freelander 1 which I had from new. 

 

I have a couple of cars neither of which I would term Autoshite, however one of them is from 1968 and is currently under restoration a Lotus Elan (Shhhhh)

 

I do have another car which at the moment is in a very unloved state and needs a fair amount of work , mainly electronic and cosmetic. A 14,000 mile from new, 1 owner Ford Fiesta Mk6..... sounds boring but they have a good following. Take a look at the Vid if you're interested...

I used to have a Mk6 Fiesta in Colorado Red 1.25, it was a 5dr though and had considerably more than 14000 miles on the clock when I sold it.

Welcome!

welcome. I liked your vid BTW; down to the point, no drama, half the screen filled with your/someone's mug doing facial gymnastics etc Like most of the car vids on youtube these days...

I want to see more of that Elan!

Take the term/name autoshite very lightly. It took me a long time to find out what the core of this forum is all about.

I have a poor old Fiesta waiting it's turn too.

Also welcome.

I've got some bits for one of them. Very cheap

Who don't love a random unloved Fiesta! I've been known to have one or two

 

This is my mk6 ST. The twat always seems to have something wrong with it.

 

 

I'd be interested in those mentioned bits above, what have you got?

Thanks, I'll be posting updates as they proceed, There are a few more videos about the Fiesta......Diagnostics.....  I will post a separate thread about the Elan.

Welcome DJB. Nice Fiesta those, would be perfect for Mother_Sterling but she's stuck on the K11 Micra I (sort of) won off here. Heartlands Ford Birmingham and 'BG' plated so a local to Birmingham car pretty much mlst of its life. You sound fairly 'Midlander' yourself if you don't mind me saying. I'm fairly local in North Worcs and frequent visitor to Birmingham/Halesowen/Black country, also to be found at various autoshite meets at an auction in Cannock (see Chaseracer/Cannock meet threads)

 

Looking forward to updates on the Fiesta.
