not a proper project but I will be messing around with this so thought why not make a thread
so I got this car as a straight swap for my old transit that was falling apart at a alarming rate (the swap was really helped by the fact the guy showed up late at night steaming drunk and refused to take any of his friends advice ). so seems as the transit well and truly paid for its self and insome this car is effectly a free!
106k miles. 1.9tdi (vw engine crazy good on squirt 60+ mpg).
its just back from the mechanics (big thanks to iain for trailering it there) with a 12 month ticket now on it . just had a replacement front subframe. rear drums fettled. new droplinks, all the lower arm bushes replaced, two new rear wheel bearings (again another nod to iain for coming around and showing me how to change them) and its got 4 new tyres on it.....
so it will be staying around for a bit as her indoors decided she doesn't want to keep ferrying the dogs around in the fiesta. and I decided I kind of like it in a strange way
her are some pictures of it unwashed and grubby as hell
