Hi all, just signed up.

Im on the lookout for a Fiesta Rs for a project at the moment.

Ive always been into my fords, starting out with many xr2's as a kid.

Then drifted into the darkside of fiat's, yep you can hurl all the abuse, i like it!

Here's a couple of pics that should hurt your eyes and damage your minds

A few of my collection!

Im hoping to get into the Rs's now, ill start with a Fiesta Rs and hopefully a escort cosworth will be along, ive really got itchy for one.

Im from the Fiat Coupe club and im a rather active member there, and i hope to be here, unless you throw me out! I wouldnt mind popping along to one of the meets, if there's anything local, im in the midlands.

Welcome to the site

At least with 4 fiat coupes there's an outside chance one will be working properly

Hello mate, and welcome

Nice collection you have there

My mate used to have one before he bought his Lancia Delta Integrale Evo but hes always been into his Fiats, Alfas, Lancias but he rates those coupes and they are suprisingly quick
