My Fiesta Turbo
Bought this not too long ago just been tidying it up bit by bit. Might be selling soon because a company car cropped up quicker than I thought, if she stays though I've got big plans, blacktop Zetec sitting in the shed
Running a T3 @ 12psi, had bigger power Escorts but this is my most useable RS so far, sh*tloads of fun
Cheers for looking...

Re: My Fiesta Turbo
Cheers lads
Got few bits waiting to be done, ST170 front brakes but need some nice 16's first, Escort Radtec intercooler I want to fit, bonnet looking a bit tired need to get my spare sprayed up etc.
In two minds on all of it though, not sure whether to sell before new company car gets here or just leave it be until summer and start the engine build since it won't get used much at all.
Think I've made my mind up then I vow to keep it after every polish

Re: My Fiesta Turbo
I think they look alright. Abit pricey though, i thought they'd be abit cheaper.
