opinion
hi mate this is just my opinion and many may disagree,much depends on weather you are looking for a standard classic or something to mod bot out of those two i would go for a mk1 fiesta, you would get a better car for the money you've got to spend if however you want something a bit faster i you could pic up a fiesta rs turbo or escort rst and you wont have to spend a fortune on it to make it go well,good luck with it i hope you find what your looking for, cliff
