First was my Fiesta Si






Then came the Cabrio first in Fast Car mag



Then it was in Fast Ford





Then came the imfamous H702 DEG Fiesta
First appeared in a rolling road thrash is Fast Ford.. check out the bling

Check out Franco and my Missus in the same rolling road thrash

Then the was a Fiesta Special in Fast Ford mag.. guest appearance from Franco again
anyone else seeing the general trend of me getting fatter




Then went Zetec Turbo had the best feature I've ever had in.. Performance Ford.. would love the photos for this asked PF a few times and just got ignored









The above feature was also copied in the RS Turbo Collectors special

Then a Fast Ford thrash



Was then at a PF Thrash I did the 0-60 @ 4.89



Then TOTB2. This is when I did my 12 sec quater mile


found this with the mag

Then more recently my Monte's first mini feature at a Rolling Road thrash

Funny enough there are a few mags missing which I don't have anymore

That 4.89s 0-60 in H702 really was one hell of an achievement. Great thread to look back on eh? See what you mean about the weight thing...I say use it as inspiration to look something like the pic taken for your Si feature when you get the Monte featured now it's at full flow!
If you spent the same time you spend at the Ford parts counter walking round the block you'd be kicking Mark Lewis Francis out of his tracksuit!

Go on the venoms!

Mille Miglia's in silver

Some pics of my 'off' at Brunters with Franco in car.. Ian Howell sent me these

Why, oh why, oh why, oh WHY?!

Sort explains why you like my cabbie so much now.
