Default 1993 Ford Fiesta Mk3 Van 2.0 16v Zetec

1993 K plate Ford Fiesta Van
2.0 16v Zetec
Diesel Gearbox
RS Turbo bodykit with vented bonnet
4 branch manifold
K&N Filter
Stainless steel cat back
Spax shocks and sprinds
XR2i wheels and Tyres
RS Turbo steering wheel
RS Turbo Recaros
RS1800i Dashboard
Black Carpet
Tinted windows
2 x Amps, 2 x Bass box, 4 x 6x9's
Flip Paint Silver/Blue
Electric Windows & Central locking
Rear Seats - I think it started life as a car and was changed to a van. Proper job!

MOT till Sept 2012
Tax till May 2012

New parts fitted: Wishbones, track rod ends, ball joints, drop links, refurbed calipers

Bad points

I'm selling as spares or repairs / Project as she does require some work:

Start motor has packed in, it just clicks, starts with a tow runs ok. Quick little car. Doesn't idle great but doesn't cut out, seems to be lumpy but as soon as you press the throttle this is gone.
Manifold gasket is blowing and exhaust is rattling at the rear
Various bits on the body with chips, scratches, surface rust etc. See the pics
When the clutch is fully in it is only half in, needs a new ratchet. NO slipping it's the opposite it doesn't engage enough, still drives fine.
Fuel guage doesn't work, all the others do
Boot lock doesn't open but can be opened from inside
Tracking needs done
I have all 4 matching wheels, one was punctured so I put on the spare which is in the pics, I will have this sorted before she goes.
There is an oil leak
Radiator has a minor leak at the bottom

Plus points are obviously it has alot of good bits on her, she is SOLID with no welding required.

Would make a brilliant project car. I have tried to list every fault so people know exactly what they are getting. A little love and this will be a very cool little van. The shell is registered as a Ford Fiesta Popular 1.1 which will need changing.

£950 ono
May swap / part ex but prefer a cash sale.

Yeah I took it in part ex against another car I was selling it was in motherwell area . It does need some love but knowing the car you'll appreciate how much work has went onto it.

the van used to be a flyer ,

my pal picked it up in liverpool as a ex bt van , painted it vw silver then put all the running gear on it , it used to have a set of fancy cams and pullys in it , 4 branch , s2 lsd box and a chip that took the limiter of it so just kept going in every gear and had 15 inch escort gti alloys back then

he then got it painted that colour for some reason then the guy in the local chippy offered him £3300 or thee abouts for it so sold it

used to go really well as i found out the hard way when he pulled about a 200 yard gap on me in my redtop nova which i thought was quick at the time

good luck with the sale anyway

as has all the good bits just needs tidyed up by the looks of it

Remember this from when a mate had it in Arbroath, went bloody well to be fair. Want a swap for a rough Focus??


Cheers,

Not really much use as you'd have to view the car but try www.shiply.com

I've used this loads of times, you just put it what you want and people bid / quote on it. It's alot cheaper to have cars transported than you would think.

Was sold to a local lad he's not on here - NOT sold, turns out he was a dreamer / timewaster.... Love these. Only contact me if you have fund available. Will only be held for a deposit.

would straight swap for my astravan sportive mate??
1.7 DTI,
a/c
c/L
total closure,
mids and tweets,
lowered 35mm

only faults temp sensor in PUMP is faulty and cannot be changed, would need new pump fitting, (ebay about £100) what it does is when its cold in a morning it wont rev properly, let it idle for 2-3 mins and then its fine,
ive ran it like that for the past year.
other fault, oil cooler needs changing,
other than that its a straight van,

I probably could have sold it a few times over but did a gentleman's agreement with a guy who was a total dreamer with no cash so its back up for sale. I took it off eBay for him. Prick! Thanks

Last bump... thought it would have sold at this price

I'm half tempted to keep it but don't have a use for it, I've already got a van as a daily driver.... and have plenty toys.
