The time has come - I'm looking to sell my pride and joy....

It needs a little work and potentially a respray (I started modding it again!) but other than that it's still very much a one-off - just read the tech spec and look in the gallery on my (very) old web site - http://www.jamesw.plus.com/fiestas/

Serious offers only please, and only via PM here

[PPsTurbo]

price???

[JJ]

Like the post says, make me a serious offer for a serious car!

[Ian C70T5]

I cant believe its finally going..

When bought my FRST i looked at this car and would have been happy for mine to be even half the car this one is..

Class car, class modifications

[JJ]

Alas, it's true, although if I don't get any offers, I'll turn it into a track day monster (already doing loads of track days in the 172!), strip out the interior and have loadsa fun with it.

It's a shame to see it go, surely someone wants to buy it?!

[Canwell]

wots the least u will take for it?

[JJ]

wots the least u will take for it?

What's your sensible offer?

[CRaZyKiD]

JJ you must give us an idea for how much you are looking for it... if i was to offer you £100 you wuld say no... So give us an idea of how much !!

[JJ]

*LOL*

Ahh, but £100 isn't a 'sensible' offer now is it....

[Canwell]

how come it needs a respray? wot does it look like at the moment?

I offer u £2000, if that sensible enuff?

Rich

[BigBaldyGeordie]

Canwell look at http://www.jamesw.plus.com/fiestas

Somehow I dont think 2k's gonna cut it

This car is Awesome to say the least

[Ben_frst]

ok £2.50 and a packet of hubba bubba

[JJ]

BigBaldyGeordie has the measure of the situation....this is no £2k car, and a part ex for some hubba bubba ain't getting ya nowhere!

Being a bit of a perfectionist, I've had some of the mods 'improved' using lead rather than filler, hence the need for a respray.

[JJ]

BTTT

Sadly, the time has come to sell up. I -have- to sell the car asap due to a house purchase.....

Serious offers only please...PM me...

[john si]

[AndyRS1800]

what does it look like now exactly?

[JJ]

Pretty much the same. Being a bit of a perfectionist, I've had some of the mods 'improved' using lead rather than filler, hence the need for a respray. I also sold the Cossie front bumper with a view to replacing it/updating the styling but then it went into storage, I got the Clio 172 and the rest is history...

The interior is still the same - chrome cage, leather/alcantara, Mk4 bits. And it's still got the 16s with Cossie brakes, custom Koni coil-overs, Puma rear beam etc. Oh, and a 200+ turbo engine, mapped by Ahmed Bayjoo with acres of chrome and a mad, bad chargecooler with a custom ally tank under the boot, all built by Pace (not to mention the Pace rad, etc. etc.)

[John H]

someone please buy my car so i can buy this!!!! i think im in love with it

[AndyRS1800]

Nice... i remember back in the day way before i was drivin i found your site and allways wanted a fiesta just like it,
I really want this car to get sprayed up and returned to how it should be... Just a shame i'm not gonna be able to do it...

[AndyRS1800]

Ps... Maybe a Up to date pic would be good, so people know what they are buying...
Just a thought so they know exactly what needs to be done and what to offer,

[JJ]

I'l see what I can do today for you - JohnH is champing at the bit!!!

AndyRS1800 - thanks for the post...I'd like to ensure the car goes to a good home *sigh* as I'd hate to see it 'vandalised' with tasteless mods. I'd do it myself, but I've just bought a house and have no time/money to do it any more, alas. It'd be nice to see it resprayed, with 17/18s, and a 2.1 16V Zetec turbo engine in it

[AndyRS1800]

Well yea that would be nice to see, Hope it all works out for ya, you stuck it up on the other ford sites dude?

[MARK AB]

how about £2750 as an offer.

[JJ]

how about £2750 as an offer.

...it's certainly an offer but not one I'd accept!

[MARK AB]

how about £3000 and what respraying is needed.

[JJ]

how about £3000 and what respraying is needed.

Well, realistically, I'm after a bit more to be honest. I'll bear your offer in mind, but it is the lowest of the bunch so far...

Again, realistically, the whole car needs respraying as I've had a fair bit leaded and seam welded

[JJ]

BTTT - I really need to sell this

[cubby240]

JJ, i know its not nice to do but you may get more breaking it up??

P.S. i think you should finish it.

[sjoyce666]

why not update your site and get some more piccies up and a full spec list, might help it to sell

what are you realistically after for it ?

Scott

Wish I had the time/cash to finish it, but having just bought a house I don't have the spare cash!

[JJ]

sjoyce666 - good idea...just need to find the time, which is scarce these days as I'm busy doing up our new house!

If someone offered me £3500-4000 for it, as is, I'd be very tempted.

[TomRS1800]

I think we all must agree thatthis car has had so much put into it and by the looks of the pics you have put a link to it does look rather tastely moidyfied Fez but I think 3.5k would be your best bet after you said it needs a respray and as you know the resprays dont come cheap! maybe a settle on 3k would be more sensible

[dawolf]

I agree, I don't think it's worth any more than £3k because of the fact it needs a full respray, that's gonna cost about £800 at least.

[JJ]

No offence, but the car has more mods than you might first think. For one, the leather/alcantara interior with brand new Recaro SRs and chrome cage is worth a sizeable chunk. Then there's the endless body mods, highly detailed engine, custom Pace chargecooler setup, custom Koni/Puma rear beam suspension setup, etc. etc. If you bought the car for £3500 you'd have bought a bargain - a £3k interior, £1k of body mods, £2k+ of engine mods, £1k+ of suspension mods, and that's just for starters. At half price the above items come to £3.5k - the car is a bargain for someone who wants a seriously good project car, with the potential to be a show-stopper!

This car is sweet! I looked at the website ages and ages ago. The best touch has to be the flush Audi door pulls welded in!! I want your doors!
