Back again with something different!
I managed to get myself a mk4 fiesta 2 years ago! I bloody loved it! Over the last year ive been rolling around in a battered mk7 fiesta, paid 500 quid for it, it had 227k on the clock, 1.4tdci! Incredible car fair play! Its now sat on 234k and I'm keeping it as my back up car as its too good to give away!
so now onto the new one! Recently I picked myself up a sport ka. Been fancying one for a while now, I had an 04 plate brand new from Ford when I was 19. Been nearly 20 years since I last drove one and I'm loving it, except the seats I'm not loving the height and I'm not loving sitting on them but that will change 🤣
some photos......

ha cool, sounds a good collection 😁 yes unfortunately they do all seem to be rot bags. I'm just gonna patch mine up as i go along. There's a pile of surface rust in places on mine too. When I get a free day I'll get a flappy disc on as much as I can and stick some primer on and touch it all up in the summer with paint

10 cars 🤣 what colour is the fiesta? I was surprised how quick the old little 1.25 was! Sounds like you've bought a cracker 👌
