This is lovely.

I had an identical one, red T plate 1.4 and I loved it. This looks like a nice example.

Don't be put off by the smaller engine. They are silky smooth, rev like crazy and I felt really suited the car.

If this was the other side of Christmas, I would have this in a heartbeat.

Can vouch for the 1.4 I had a fiesta with the same engine and a 1.7 puma.  The puma had much more acceleration 40-70 but the 1.4 still went well enough

It's only a 2.4 turbo diesel with the turbo removed so its a diesel then.

WTF? Why would you do that?

They also mention in the ad that it runs but is a 'bit smokey'. No shit, Sherlock. It'll be overfuelling to fuck with no boost pressure to burn it off.

Fucking £15000 too.

Or for another £800 ish you could have this Fiesta Supersport fake. It's got a 1.8 Zetec, single carb and RWD. I think it's bloody awesome.

Were one to find oneself in the position of binning the best part of 20 grand on an old uncle festa.... that’s actually a really hard decision to make. The original I think, unless one owns a racetrack....

I am not trying to convince you to buy it, but I work in Bury St Edmunds and could probably give anyone who bought said car a lift from the railway station.

@rantingYoof this is the Omega you have always promised yourself. An early 2.0 in base spec (I think this is the legendary "Select" trim level).

No wood trim, just grey plastic.

Alloy wheels which somehow manage to look like discount wheel trims.

A steering wheel out of a Cavalier (not even worthy of a proper Omega steering wheel).

I cannot believe how utterly miserable it is. It's brilliant. To top it all off, it comes with a year's MoT, so you can enjoy the absolute misery for a full calendar year for only £650.

those are not alloy wheels.

Oh hell. 

It's a diesel. It's beige. It's close to me. 

Damn I do not have the space - Mrs S would murder me.

Any use to anyone? Looks pretty tidy, looks like it’s had a bit of welding on the sills but overall pretty nice.  Stoke on Trent ST6

^^ (1954 Standard Eight posted 2 hours ago, previous page), no proper bootlid till 1957. That must have made things a bit awkward sometimes, especially if you were of ample size or advanced age.

Skip to 1.25mins.

 

Imagine trying to get a fully loaded toolbox in and out of there.

Could put the dog in there on a blanket. Or the baby.

That makes me really want another one. I never realised the whole rear seat base tips forward, though. Also didn't realise that tartan seat trim was original. Somebody buy the blue one I posted, I guarantee you'll have fun with it. That film is great - note the lack of hubcaps and single wiper, a specification that was so miserable it didn't even last a year iirc

Very basic spec to keep price down.

Excellent article on AROnline.

https://www.aronline.co.uk/cars/standard/810-pennant/the-rivals-standard-eight-ten-and-pennant/

Quote, -   ". . . . . and infamously, the omission of an external boot lid.  This latter feature was promoted as an advantage, as it allowed the luggage space to be extended into the rear passenger compartment, and was “dust and rain sealed”".

Excellent work, always look on the positive side, give that advertising man a cigar.
