Yeah mate, it is quit a good example, and we have spent a wee bit in the last week with the samcos and polished bits for it, She is really chuffed with the way it has turned out!! Cant recommend the Macguires polish enough eithor!!

Blue has been done to death though greg and red would be a bit much, they give a good contrast main thing is she likes them, the cage is now in the back as well. Greg it looks like this show idea will be a goer so I will let you know more details late the response has been nae bad!!

Very nice indeed - must get some pics of my car up sometime. It needs a wee bit of TLC having done not many miles but is cleaning up rather nicely.

Green Samcos to match the stripes are what im planning Not too fond of the yellow even if it matches the yellow caps in the engine bay.

its a sentimental thing,, ive had her 5 years and i love it to bits,, great fun and a quick little car,, they look good and with the t3 shes really reliable too

im bored of my cossie already and ive only had it 5 mins ,,but the frst i never get bored with

my cossie is 327 bhps and i can honestly say i prefer the drive of the fiesta ,, maybe is a female thing

ive owned many turbos escorts etc,, but the fiesta come out on top every time

Im 30 and im back in my 3rd FRST - I find bigger cars far less fun.

Driven Scoobs, Cossies, RX7 etc but always enjoy smaller cars far far more as I find them more chuckable and responsive.

Took a test drive of a Saff Cossie last year and jumping from my Clio Williams made the Saff feel like a barge. Its all down to taste I guess!

i have just gone from a stage 1 saph to a standard fez turbo as a run about and i can honestly say the fiesta is more fun in the bends but the cossie is a far more refined, better car. The fiestas driving position is cramped and the steering is beyond heavy
