Classic mk1 1.1 Ghia Fiesta
Selling for my parents as they have no internet access, this superb, all original, classic Fiesta (the car is in Bracknell, Berkshire)
They purchased it in Jan 1998 with 27,000 miles genuine on the clock, purchased from a girl who's Nan previously owned it. The car has now only covered 56,438 miles - all MOT certificates present for last 8 years (since they have owned it). Has been regularly serviced, including the following parts replaced over that time:
radiator
alternator
battery
exhaust (full system)
water pump
starter motor
As you can see from the pictures the car is in very good condition considering its age (24 years) with no welding, yet... sills all original and solid. It has all the original interior, including working sunroof and wooden effect dash and original stereo, opening front quarter windows. All of the alloys are pretty much in the same condition as the one shown. No leaks into the boot, or any part of interior.
Bad points (see pics):
It will need work to pass the next MOT - as pictures show there is a hole offside inner wing behind the headlight, and on the drivers side floorpan where the seat mounts - I'm not an MOT tester but, in my opinion, these two points will fail it, I cannot see anything else major.
Small tear on the drivers seat.
A dent on the offside rear quarter panel.
Passenger side quarter window broken.
Slight dent on nearside rear wheel arch.
Carb could do with overhaul.
Due a service.
Slight rust starting to come through on the rear wheel arches lips
I have tried to describe the car as best from memory and the pictures (the car being at my parents house)
It will be missed as never let Mum down, is in fantastic condition for its age considering its original and unrestored, needs good home and a very little TLC.
Not sure whats its worth really, maybe a classic company may be interested? Offers?!
